Product Description:

This innovative reader brings together classic theoretical texts and cutting-edge ethnographic analyses of specific state institutions, practices, and processes and outlines an anthropological framework for rethinking future study of “the state”.

  • Focuses on the institutions, spaces, ideas, practices, and representations that constitute the “state”.
  • Promotes cultural and transnational approaches to the subject.
  • Helps readers to make anthropological sense of the state as a cultural artifact, in the context of a neoliberalizing, transnational world.

Summary: accessible and excellent
Rating: 5

this is a well-chosen collection with excellent introductions by the editors--they succinctly clarify concepts like governmentality, transnational forms of non-state sovereignty, etc. that are often presented in obtuse, unnecessarily technical language. highly recommended.
