Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Anthropologists who talk about ethics generally mean the code of practice drafted by a professional association for implementation by its members. As this book convincingly shows, such a conception is far too narrow. A more radical approach is to recognize that moral judgments are made at every juncture of scientific practice and they require a negotiation of responsibility with all stakeholders in the research enterprise.Embedding Ethics questions why ethics have been divorced from scientific expertise. Invoking different disciplinary practices from biological, archaeological, cultural, and linguistic anthropology, contributors show how ethics should be resituated at the heart of, rather than exterior to, scientific activity. Positioning the researcher as a negotiator of significant truths rather than an adjudicator of a priori precepts enables contributors to relocate ethics in new sets of social and scientific relationships triggered by recent globalization processes - from new forms of intellectual and cultural ownership to accountability in governance, and the very ways in which people are studied. Case studies from ethnographic research, museum display, archaeological fieldwork and professional monitoring illustrate both best practice and potential pitfalls.This important book is an essential guide for all anthropologists who wish to be active contributors to the discussion on ethics and the ethical practice of their profession. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

RELIGION IN THE MAKING The Emergence of the Sciences of Religion
Seller: AVON HILL BOOKS, Cambridge, MA, U.S.A.
Association Member: SNEAB
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Cloth boards. From the series STUDIES IN THE HISTORY OF RELIGIONS, volume LXXX. "This volume explores the ways in which religion became the o bject of scientific research in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Most obvious is the development of an increasing autonomous science of religion (with founding fathers like Max Muller and C. P. Tiele) . However, with anthropology (Tylor, Frazer) , sociology (Durkheim, Max Weber) , and psychology (William James) , relgion also came to be seen as a separate entity to be studied comparatively . To capture this wide field this book focuses on the emergence of the discourse on religion in a broad academic context, among different disciplines. The emphasis is on general socio-historical devel opments, rather than on individual biographies. Part One deals with the institutionalization of science of religion in France, Britain, and the Netherlands. Part Two focuses on boundary disputes betwe en the emerging 'sciences of religion'. Part Three examines new conceptualizations of religion underlying the new endeavour ('ritual', 'magic', 'survival') . Religion - philosophy - history - 19th century - 20th century. Emile Burnouf. Adolph Moses. Eliza Sunderland. ; 8vo; 318 pp.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. A range of meaningful objects-exhibits of human remains or live people, fetishes, objects in a Catholic Museum, exotic photographs, commodities, and computers-demonstrate a subordinate modern consciousness about powerful objects and their 'life'. The Spirit of Matter discusses these objects that move people emotionally but whose existence is often denied by modern wishful thinking of 'mind over matter'. It traces this mindset back to Protestant Christian influences that were secularized in the course of modern and colonial history.
