Description

Explore the fundamental moral questions of the discipline with The Ethics of Anthropology: Debates and Dilemmas by Routledge. While anthropologists have long studied external systems of morality, including religion, social control, virtue, and duty, this work turns the lens inward to examine the discipline itself. This text investigates the agendas, theories, and practices that shape anthropological study. It builds upon Raymond Firth's 1991 assertion that social anthropology is an essentially moral discipline, questioning if this perspective remains relevant in a postmodern era. Readers will examine whether anthropological ethics require constant re-evaluation as disciplinary conditions change and as professional choices collide with evolving social realities. This book is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of social science and morality. It provides a deep look at how the field manages its own epistemes and the ethical responsibilities inherent in studying other peoples' ways of life. Whether you are a student or a professional, this text offers a rigorous look at the dilemmas facing modern anthropology.
