ISBN: 9780472087464 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. It is often forgotten that anthropology--the scientific study of cultural difference--arose from situations that required a practical management of cultural differences. Out of the practical contexts of colonial contact--administration, mission, nationalism, policing, settler cultivation, tourism, warfare--emerged methods, and images of otherness, that inform anthropological notions of cultural difference to this day.

A Politics of Presence: Contacts Between Missionaries and Walugru in Late Colonial Tanganyika
ISBN: 9789057023040 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 372 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Christian missions in Africa are commonly viewed as a blatant example of ethnocentrism.

Embedding Ethics
ISBN: 9781845200466 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Embedding Ethics questions why ethics have been divorced from scientific expertise. Invoking different disciplinary practices from biological, archaeological, cultural, and linguistic anthropology, contributors show how ethics should be resituated at the heart of, rather than exterior to, scientific activity. Positioning the researcher as a negotiator of significant truths rather than an adjudicator of a priori precepts enables contributors to relocate ethics in new sets of social and scientific relationships triggered by recent globalization processes--from new forms of...
