—Louise Lamphere, University of New Mexico
"Joan Vincent has a rare grasp of anthropology's past and vision
of its future. The twenty-first-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
