Excursions
ISBN: 9780822340546 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A village in Sierra Leone. A refugee trail over the Pyrenees in French Catalonia. A historic copper mine in Sweden. The Shuf mountains in Lebanon. The Swiss Alps. The heart of the West African diaspora in southeast London. The anthropologist Michael Jackson makes his sojourns to each of these far-flung locations, and to his native New Zealand, occasions for exploring the contradictions and predicaments of social existence. He calls his explorations excursions not only because each involved breaking with settled routines and certainties, but because the image of an excursion suggests that...

As Wide as the World Is Wise: Reinventing Philosophical Anthropology
ISBN: 9780231178280 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Philosophy and anthropology have long debated questions of difference: rationality versus irrationality, abstraction versus concreteness, modern versus premodern. What if these disciplines instead focused on the commonalities of human experience? Would this effort bring philosophers and anthropologists closer together? Would it lead to greater insights across historical and cultural divides? In As Wide as the World Is Wise, Michael Jackson encourages philosophers and anthropologists to mine the space between localized and globalized perspectives, to resolve empirically the...

Life Within Limits: Well-Being in a World of Want
ISBN: 9780822348924 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The sense that well-being remains elusive, transitory, and unevenly distributed is felt by the rich as well as the poor, and in all societies. To explore this condition of existential dissatisfaction, the anthropologist Michael Jackson traveled to Sierra Leone, described in a recent UN report as the "least livable" country in the world. There he revisited the village where he did his first ethnographic fieldwork in 1969-70 and lived in 1979. Jackson writes that Africans have always faced forces from without that imperil their lives and livelihoods. Though these forces have assumed different...

Minima Ethnographica: Intersubjectivity and the Anthropological Project
ISBN: 9780226389462 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The postmodern opposition between theory and lived reality has led in part to an anthropological turn to "dialogic" or "reflexive" approaches. Michael Jackson claims these approaches are hardly radical as they still drift into such abstractions as "society" or "culture." His Minima Ethnographica proposes an existential anthropology that recognizes even abstract relationships as modalities of interpersonal life. Written in the style of Theodor Adorno's Minima Moralia, Jackson's work shows how general ideas are always anchored in particular social events and critical concerns....

ISBN: 9781571814760 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Inspired by existential thought, but using ethnographic methods, Jackson explores a variety of compelling topics, including 9/11, episodes from the war in Sierra Leone and its aftermath, the marginalization of indigenous Australians, the application of new technologies, mundane forms of ritualization, the magical use of language, the sociality of violence, the prose of suffering, and the discourse of human rights.
