Description

Explore the deep connection between research methods and theoretical problems in The Craft of Social Anthropology. Published by Routledge as part of the Studies in Sociology and Social Anthropology series, this text examines how advances in theory and shifts in orientation influence the development of anthropological techniques. While modern social anthropology relies heavily on the tradition of fieldwork, this work examines why laboratory procedures for anthropological fieldwork cannot be prescribed in absolute terms or become fully standardized. As anthropological analysis continues to be refined, this book provides a look into the evolving relationship between scientific methods and the field of social anthropology.
