The Routledge Companion to Contemporary Anthropology

This volume covers the concerns of contemporary anthropology and considers its construction through texts, classroom interactions, engagements with various publics, and changing relations with other academic subjects. An expert team of authors introduce key contemporary perspectives and approaches within the field and explore significant issues that can be analysed usefully through an anthropological lens. The collection provides both students and scholars with a powerful overview of anthropology as a lively and constantly evolving discipline.
