Europe in the Anthropological Imagination

Europe In The Anthropological Imagination Is A Provocative, Reflective Book About How American Anthropologists Study Europe. The Book Is Composed Of Fourteen Essays By Twelve Anthropologists Who Have Worked In Europe For At Least Twenty Years. These Anthropologists Were Asked To Address How, When, Where, And Why They Began To Study Europe, And To Consider What This Implied For The Development Of Anthropology In General (since Anthropology Is Traditionally Identified As A Field That Studies The Non-western, Exotic Other).--back Cover.
