Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This volume responds to the often-proclaimed 'death of the subject' in post-structuralist theorizing, and to calls from across the social sciences for 'post-humanist' alternatives to liberal humanism in a distinctively anthropological manner. It asks: can we use the intellectual resources developed in those approaches and debates to reconstruct a new account of how individual human subjects are contingently put together in diverse historical and ethnographic contexts? Anthropologists know that the people they work with think in terms of particular, distinctive, individual human personalities, and that in times of change and crisis these individuals matter crucially to how things turn out. The volume features a classic essay by Caroline Humphrey, 'Reassembling individual subjects', that provides a focus for the debate, and it brings together a distinguished collection of essays, which exhibit a range of theoretical approaches and rich and varied ethnography. Students and scholars in anthropology and related disciplines are provided with focused debate on cutting-edge theoretical issues with ethnographic essays from across the globe. A classic journal article serves as a focus for debate together with responses by a team of upcoming and distinguished anthropologists to examine the issues from the perspective of varied ethnographic settings.
