"Joan Vincent has a rare grasp of anthopology´s past and
vision of its future. The 21st-century renewal of political
anthropology will be excellently served by her thoughtful
assemblage of foundational texts, modern classics, recent
achievements and current controversies." Ulf Hannerz, Stockholm
University
"In this incomparable volume, Joan Vincent has brilliantly compiled the key texts in the anthropological study of politics. Suitable as a textbook for the beginning student and as a reference work for the professional academic, it will appeal to scholars in many different disciplines. Not only does this volume provide readers with a genealogy of an anthropological approach to politics, it introduces or reacquaints them with some of its most important contemporary contributors." Akhil Gupta, Stanford University
