Fabrics of Anthropological Knowledge

Weaving together a collection of original essays, this book looks at the transnational circulations of people, concepts and practices in anthropology, revealing the many ways that they cross borders. The essays focus on European anthropological traditions and beyond, including broader transnational interactions, to uncover the intricate fabrics of interconnected influences that have shaped anthropology. By presenting these diverse threads, the volume challenges the notion of singular, separated traditions of anthropology and demonstrates how the field has been shaped by a rich plurality of transnational connections, negotiations and entanglements in the past and today.
