Leiden, Research School CNWS, 1996. orig.wrappers. 24x15cm, 272 pp. Series: Center of Non-Western Studies, CNWS Publications, v. 23.. Minor rubbing. VG. ¶ Contains 14 papers. ["As in the past, the present theoretical landscape in Europe in the field of anthropology presents a diverse and heterogenious picture. The biennial conferences of the recently established European Association of Social Anthropologists reveal however, that the vitality of European anthropology stems not in the least from this very diversity in theoretical and methodological outlook. European traditions in anthropology, of old associated with the chairs established towards the end of the 19th century, are themselves subject to important processes of transformations and revitalisation, whereas new centres of anthropological thought are displaying a rapid and impressive growth. Added to this is the recent opening up of the East European and former Sovjet centres of learning, which may lead once more to the profound mutual inspiration that has provided such an important basis for the development of anthropological thought. The present volume presents a choice of contributions illustrating the diversity of anthropological theory and methodology among European scholars" - publisher's description].
