Reverse Anthropology Indigenous Analysis of Social And Environmental Relations in New Guinea

"Reverse Anthropology is an uncommonly sophisticated work of engaged ethnography, and a book that provides an impressive and uncompromising model of equal accountability to scholarly research and indigenous advocacy. With patience, insight, and brilliant attention to Yonggom subjectivity, Stuart Kirsch reveals what it means to turn anthropology inside out. This is a standout book in the new anthropology of modern Melanesia."Steven Feld, University of New Mexico "This is an important story that will draw many audiences. It weaves personal experience, politics, and activism in and out of a scholarly analysis made possible by the way Kirsch draws on the analytical skills of his subjects. In this it is nothing short of a brilliant and sympathetic enterprise."Dame Marilyn Strathern FBA, William Wyse Professor of Social Anthropology, University of CambridgeKirsch, Stuart is the author of 'Reverse Anthropology Indigenous Analysis of Social And Environmental Relations in New Guinea', published 2006 under ISBN 9780804753418 and ISBN 0804753415.
