In this volume, Jean La Fontaine explores the intersection of expert and lay understandings of evil and the cultural forms that evil assumes. The chapters touch on public scares about devil-worship, misconceptions about human sacrifice and the use of body parts in healing practices, and mistaken accusations of children practicing witchcraft. Together, these cases demonstrate that comparison is a powerful method of cultural understanding, but warns of the dangers and mistaken conclusions that untrained ideas about other ways of life can lead to.<\/p>\n<p>Read\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/downloads\/intros\/LaFontaineWitches_intro.pdf\"><strong>Introduction:<\/strong>\u00a0Understanding the Other<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/covers\/PinkMedia.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"135\" height=\"203\" \/>Volume 9 <em>New in Paperback<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/title\/PinkMedia\">MEDIA, ANTHROPOLOGY AND PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT<\/a><br \/>\nEdited by Sarah Pink and Simone Abram<\/p>\n<p>Contemporary anthropology is done in a world where social and digital media are playing an increasingly significant role, where anthropological and arts practices are often intertwined in museum and public intervention contexts, and where anthropologists are encouraged to engage with mass media. Because anthropologists are often expected and inspired to ensure their work engages with public issues, these opportunities to disseminate work in new ways and to new publics simultaneously create challenges as anthropologists move their practice into unfamiliar collaborative domains and expose their research to new forms of scrutiny.

Maida<\/p>\n<p>Anthropologists have acted as experts and educators on the nature and ways of life of people worldwide, working to understand the human condition in broad comparative perspective. As a discipline, anthropology has often advocated \u2014 and even defended \u2014 the cultural integrity, authenticity, and autonomy of societies across the globe. Public anthropology today carries out the discipline\u2019s original purpose, grounding theories in lived experience and placing empirical knowledge in deeper historical and comparative frameworks. This is a vitally important kind of anthropology that has the goal of improving the modern human condition by actively engaging with people to make changes through research, education, and political action.<\/p>\n<p>Read\u00a0<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/downloads\/intros\/BeckPublic_intro.pdf\">Introduction<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>For a full list of volumes in the series please <a href=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/series\/public-applied-anthropology\">visit series webpage<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/series\/higher-education-in-critical-perspective\"><em>Higher Education in Critical Perspective: Practices and Policies<\/em><\/a>\u00a0Series<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Around the globe, universities are being reformed to supply two crucial ingredients of a purported \u2018global knowledge economy\u2019: research and graduates.

Notwithstanding the Euro-American focus, this volume has much to offer in terms of inspiring similar kinds of endeavours in other geographical and sociocultural contexts. It stands out because of the rich original ethnography and critical thoughts it offers. It is very well-edited and\/or written, a delightful read, and will likely make readers feel they are taking part in an engaging conversation.\u201d<\/em>\u00a0\u00b7\u00a0<strong>Social Anthropology<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Read\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/downloads\/intros\/HyattLearning_intro.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Introduction:<\/strong>\u00a0Higher Education, Engaged Anthropology, and Hegemonic Struggle<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>NEW IN PAPERBACK:<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/covers\/GudemanOikos.jpg\" alt=\"Oikos and Market: Explorations in Self-Sufficiency after Socialism\" width=\"135\" height=\"203\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/title\/GudemanOikos\">OIKOS AND MARKET<\/a><br \/>\nExplorations in Self-Sufficiency after Socialism<br \/>\nEdited by Stephen Gudeman and Chris Hann<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/r20.rs6.net\/tn.jsp?f=001pzfjAMWTJxRiguJsKzcfMocddnfPrKLxqM4Wa41lpAK1UIys74wYdPQJ6TBwaFJJLe0CtEvHOL_RdPAd1evrOlDYeaYl8RG2xXKuGp5jv9ZyeOYBHr0kGSdXa-4ob88OnT-t6atcW5hvWt9eWNCqVbw66alyPhMN89Lyb-DON3OgDrRx6NyUbJDOpjU-3OByfMFD9b79xa4=&amp;c=jdvjOlTnFnrxW-t44oyfBHAunUp25k9xjm0yyOFEFbpKwNIHS9okIg==&amp;ch=2xwYK8Q8WjwHwJ0jn4euO2B6QwEDC1YIk08TDYoe7BL_zqbYxEeM4w==\">Volume 2, \u00a0Max Planck Studies in Anthropology and Economy<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201c\u2026the volume offers possibilities for fruitfully reconsidering\u00a0 enduring topics and issues in economic theory that are of great interest not just to anthropologists but to other social scientists and economic philosophers.\u201d<\/em>\u00a0<strong>\u00b7 Anthropos<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Read <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/downloads\/intros\/GudemanOikos_intro.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Introduction:<\/a><\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/downloads\/intros\/GudemanOikos_intro.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u00a0Self-Sufficiency as Reality and as Myth<\/a><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/covers\/BrazzabeniGypsy.jpg\" alt=\"Gypsy Economy: Romani Livelihoods and Notions of Worth in the 21st Century\" width=\"135\" height=\"200\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.berghahnbooks.com\/title\/BrazzabeniGypsy\">GYPSY ECONOMY<\/a><br \/>\nRomani Livelihoods and Notions of Worth in the 21st Century<br \/>\nEdited by Micol Brazzabeni, Manuela Ivone Cunha, and Martin Fotta<br \/>\nAfterword by Keith Hart<\/p>\n<p>Volume 3, <em><a href=\"http:\/\/r20.rs6.net\/tn.jsp?f=001pzfjAMWTJxRiguJsKzcfMocddnfPrKLxqM4Wa41lpAK1UIys74wYdL12XFtLbZ4Q9IP414xtNl5PPTxGu94ATcVHR5H8rUtgATctg_rPwM-ZLiiumhZpenv7qI7HyObsgbWd8AqXA7B2QRoGboui73Gkky3qnv-MvxILCXtzEGfXEyspau3gnGRekpPOvQ1Ea6z7CZOeasqZiHwBmwzv2g==&amp;c=jdvjOlTnFnrxW-t44oyfBHAunUp25k9xjm0yyOFEFbpKwNIHS9okIg==&amp;ch=2xwYK8Q8WjwHwJ0jn4euO2B6QwEDC1YIk08TDYoe7BL_zqbYxEeM4w==\">The Human Economy<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI specifically recommend this book to those who are interested in anthropology, ethnography, or in the everyday lives of Roma in general.
