Description

Explore the deep connection between research methods and theoretical problems in this academic work from Routledge. Part of the Studies in Sociology & Social Anthropology series, this book examines how shifts in orientation go hand in hand with the development of new techniques. As social anthropology advances, the relationship between theory and practice remains a central focus. The text discusses how the field owes much to its tradition of fieldwork, while noting that laboratory procedures for anthropological fieldwork cannot be prescribed in absolute terms or become fully standardized. This book provides a look into how anthropological analysis is refined as the field continues to evolve through its unique research methods.
