Özet, vb.
"Why does the world need anthropology and anthropologists more than ever? The second edition of Why the World Needs Anthropologists brings together prominent academic, practicing, and applied anthropologists to answer this provocative question. This new edition advocates for a proactive and ethically engaged discipline that not only observes societal transformations but also contributes to solving the most pressing global issues. It proposes that anthropology must be at the front and center of the solving table. In an accessible and appealing style, each author explores the social value and practical application of the discipline of anthropology. Contributors share their career paths and how they use their anthropological skills and knowledge outside academia, and provide specific suggestions to anthropologists and the public at large on practical ways in which anthropology offers powerful insights and solutions in complex and unpredictable times. Each chapter includes a list of recommendations - DOs and DON'Ts - from the authors. With such practical resources, this book is a toolkit to harness anthropology's full potential. This one-of-a-kind volume is essential reading for both fledgling and established anthropologists, social scientists and the general public"-- Provided by publisher.
