商品簡介
The original articles presented in this anthology reflect a world changed by globalization, and an anthropology committed to documenting the effects of the vast cultural flows of people, information, goods, and technology, now in motion the world over. The editors write an introduction to the topic of cultural change, and each of the fifteen anthropologists in the anthology take students on a return visit to their original field sites, asking questions for a new era and writing of peoples to some extent familiar, but at the same time changed, transformed by global forces. A "Fieldwork Bio" on the researcher begins each chapter, and together they document four main dimensions in culture change including: challenges to identity and power; changing gender hierarchies; new patterns of migration and mobility; and the effects of economic change and modernization.
