|
ISBN: 0415229081 ISBN-13: 9780415229081 Publisher: Routledge OUR PRICE: $49.39 Product Type: Paperback - Other Formats Published: February 2002 Annotation: 'Community' is so overused both in everyday language as well as in scholarly work that it could easily be dismissed as a truism. However, the persistence of the term itself shows that the idea continues to resonate powerfully in our daily lives, ethnographic accounts as well as theoretical analyses. This book returns a timely and concerted anthropological gaze to community as part of a broader consideration of contemporary circumstances of social affiliation and solidarity. |
