商品描述

Decolonization has been a buzzword in anthropology for decades, but remains difficult to grasp and to achieve. This groundbreaking volume offers not only a critical examination of approaches to decolonization, but also fresh ways of thinking about the relationship between anthropology and colonialism, and how we might move beyond colonialism's troubling legacy.

Soumhya Venkatesan describes the work already underway, and the work still needed, to extend the horizons of the discipline. Drawing on scholarship from anthropology and cognate disciplines, as well as ethnographic and other case studies, she argues both that the practice of anthropology needs to be and do better, and that it is worth saving. She focuses not only on ways of decolonizing anthropology but also on the potential of 'a decolonizing anthropology'.

Rich with insights from a range of fields, Decolonizing Anthropology is an essential resource for students and scholars.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

去殖民化在人類學中已經成為一個熱門詞彙數十年,但仍然難以理解和實現。這本開創性的著作不僅對去殖民化的方法進行了批判性的檢視,還提供了關於人類學與殖民主義之間關係的新思維方式,以及我們如何能夠超越殖民主義所帶來的困擾遺產。

Soumhya Venkatesan 描述了目前已經展開的工作以及仍需進行的工作,以擴展這一學科的視野。她借鑒了人類學及相關學科的學術研究,以及民族誌和其他案例研究,主張人類學的實踐需要更好地進行,並且值得被拯救。她不僅專注於去殖民化人類學的方法,還探討了「去殖民化的人類學」的潛力。

《去殖民化人類學》充滿了來自多個領域的見解,是學生和學者的重要資源。
