Hardback. Condition: New. The archaeology of the contemporary era is a lively and well-established field, contributing to studies of migration, climate change, consumption and violent conflict, as well as to the development of archaeological thought and practice more widely. Contemporary archaeology is grounded in the material traces of 20th and 21st-century existence, touching upon fields such as human geography, contemporary history and social anthropology. Despite its scholarly impacts and widely-recognised pedagogical values, to date the formal teaching of contemporary archaeology has been relatively limited. This book brings together accounts of teaching and learning in contemporary archaeology from as far afield as Orkney and Iran.The chapters include case studies of courses, modules and specific sessions, as well as reflections on the development of the discipline in different contexts. This book is intended as a resource for both teachers and students of contemporary archaeology, presenting a set of tools and practices to borrow, modify and apply in new contexts. It highlights the values of interdisciplinarity, radical pedagogies, and innovative approaches in contemporary archaeology and related disciplines, and provides a basis for future developments and debates in contemporary archaeology curriculum design.…

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The tools and techniques of archaeology were designed for the study of past people and societies, but for more than a century a growing number of archaeologists have turned these same tools to the study of the modern world. This book offers an overview of these pioneering practices through a specifically pedagogical lens, fostering an appreciation of the diversity and distinctiveness of contemporary archaeology and providing an evidence base for course proposals and curriculum design.Although research in the field is well established and vibrant, making critical contributions to wider debates around issues such as homelessness, migration and the refugee crisis, and legacies of war and conflict, the teaching of contemporary archaeology in universities has until recently been relatively limited in comparison. This selection of carefully curated case studies from as far afield as Orkney, Iran and the USA is intended as a resource and an inspiration for both teachers and students, presenting a set of tools and practices to borrow, modify and apply in new contexts. It demonstrates how interdisciplinarity, practical work and radical pedagogies are of value not only for archaeology, but also for fields such as history, geography and anthropology, and suggests new ways in which we can examine our 20th- and 21st-century existence and shape our collective future.
