In its assessment of the current `state of play' of ethnographic
practice in social anthropology, this volume explores the
challenges that changing social forms and changing understandings
of `the field'pose to contemporary ethnographic methods. These
challenges include the implications of the remarkable impact
social anthropology is having on neighboring disciplines such as
history, sociology, cultural studies, human geography and
linguistics, as well as the potential `costs' of this success for
the discipline. Contributors also discuss how the ethnographic
method is influenced by current institutional contexts and
historical `traditions' across a range of settings. Here
ethnography is featured less as a methodological `tool-box' or
technique but rather as a subject on which to reflect.
