Discovering Social Anthropology in Galicia
(Supplementary materials to Chris Hann: Teach Yourself Social Anthropology,
London, 2000. This site published 23/06/00. A revised version will be
published later this summer)
Synopsis
Social anthropology began as the science of the exotic and 'savage', but
anthropologists have extended the range of their discipline to include the
most 'advanced' societies, and everything in between. The materials made
available are linked to the author's simultaneously published book "Teach
Yourself Social Anthropology" (London, Hodder and Stoughton, 2000). They
describe a seven week course
in social anthropology at a summer school in the Polish city of Cracow.
Postcommunist society is neither exotically strange nor reassuringly
familiar to the participants, who learn to apply and deepen their knowledge
in a variety of activities outside the classroom.
We are very pleased that Chris Hann has chosen this route to make his
material available, and we would welcome other contributions to help the
further development of the ERA project
