Description

Why has anthropology not reached the level of popularity and respect it deserves in the twenty-first century? Engaging Anthropology addresses this question directly. This book examines the current state of the discipline and explores why it has struggled to gain broader public influence despite its immense potential. Eriksen looks at how anthropology can contribute to modern discussions regarding identity, multiculturalism, globalization, and marginalization. The text examines the impact of new technologies and changing work environments on society, arguing that the discipline has much to offer the world if it can find its voice. Beyond just looking at social trends, the author critiques the anthropological community. The book discusses the need for scholars to be more proactive in engaging with the media and participating in current global debates. This work is a call to action for those interested in how social science can better interact with the public sphere.
