Taking Sides : Ethics, Politics, and Fieldwork in Anthropology, Hardback Book

Taking Sides : Ethics, Politics, and Fieldwork in Anthropology Hardback

Edited by Heidi Armbruster, Anna Lærke

Hardback

Description

Concerns with research ethics have intensified over recent years, in large part as a symptom of "audit cultures" (M.

Strathern) but also as a serious matter of engagement with the ethical complexities in contemporary research fields.

This volume, written by a new generation of scholars engaged with contemporary global movements for social justice and peace, reflects their efforts in trying to integrate their scholarly pursuits with their understanding of social science, politics and ethics, and what political commitment means in practice and in fieldwork.

This is a book of argument and analysis, written with passion, clarity and intellectual sophistication, which touches on issues of vital significance to social scientists and activists in general.
