{"product_id":"after-ethnos","title":"After Ethnos","description":"\u003cdiv\u003eFor most of the twentieth century, anthropologists understood themselves as ethnographers. The art of anthropology was the fieldwork-based description of faraway others-of how social structures secretly organized the living-together of a given society, of how a people had endowed the world surrounding them with cultural meaning. While the poetics and politics of anthropology have changed dramatically over the course of a century, the basic equation of anthropology with ethnography-as well as the definition of the human as a social and cultural being-has remained so evident that the possibility of questioning it occurred to hardly anyone. In \u003ci\u003eAfter Ethnos\u003c\/i\u003e Tobias Rees endeavors to decouple anthropology from ethnography-and the human from society and culture-and explores the manifold possibilities of practicing a question-based rather than an answer-based anthropology that emanates from this decoupling. What emerges from Rees's provocations is a new understanding of anthropology as a philosophically and poetically inclined, fieldwork-based investigation of what it could mean to be human when the established concepts of the human on which anthropology has been built increasingly fail us.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Duke University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53510693290351,"sku":"9781478000808","price":204.85,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0921\/9384\/9711\/files\/1478000805.jpg?v=1789992249","url":"https:\/\/internacional.umlivro.com.br\/products\/after-ethnos","provider":"UmLivro Internacional","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
