Fox London : Routledge, 2002. Today it is time for Anthropology to resume its central task of exploring humankind through comparison, using its newfound critical self-awareness under changing global conditions. In Anthropology, by Comparison an international group of prominent anthropologist re-visits, re-theorized, and re-invigorates comparison as a legitimate and fruitful enterprise. The authors explore the value of anthropological comparison and encourage an international dialogue about comparative research. while rejecting older, universalist comparative methods, these scholars take a fresh look at various subaltern and neglected approaches to comparison from their own national traditions. They then present new approaches that are specially relevant to the globalized world of the 21st century. 01668/MKRI-P/II-2005
