Empires, Nations, and Natives : Anthropology and State-Making PDF
Edited by de L'Estoile Benoit de L'Estoile, Neiburg Federico Neiburg, Sigaud Lygia Maria Sigaud
Description
The contributors-social and cultural anthropologists from the Americas and Europe-report on both historical and contemporary processes. Moving beyond controversies that cast the relationship between scholarship and politics in binary terms of complicity or autonomy, they bring into focus a dynamic process in which states, anthropological knowledge, and population groups themselves are mutually constructed. Such a reflexive endeavor is an essential contribution to a critical anthropological understanding of a changing world.
