Collaborations responds to the increasing pressure on the humanities and social sciences to justify their impact and utility after cuts in public spending and the introduction of neoliberal values into academia. The editors argue in defense of anthropology, demonstrating the continued importance of the discipline and revealing how it contributes to solving major problems in contemporary society. They also illustrate how anthropology can not only survive but thrive under these conditions. Moreover, Collaborations shows that collaboration with other disciplines is the key to anthropology's long-term sustainability and survival, and explores the challenges that interdisciplinary work presents.
The book is divided into two parts: Anthropology and Academia, and Anthropology in Practice. The first part features examples from anthropologists working in academic settings, ranging from the life, behavioral, and social sciences to the humanities, arts, and business. The second part highlights detailed ethnographic contributions on topics such as peace negotiations, asylum seekers, prostitution, and autism.
Collaborations is an important read for students, scholars, and professional and applied anthropologists as it explores how anthropology can remain relevant in the contemporary world and how to prevent it from becoming an increasingly isolated and marginalized discipline.
