In recent years, crucial questions have been raised about anthropology as a discipline, such as whether ethnography is central to the subject, and how imagination, reality and truth are joined in anthropological enterprises. These interventions have impacted anthropologists and scholars at large. This volume contributes to the debate about the interrelationships between ethnography and anthropology and takes it to a new plane. Six anthropologists with field experience in Egypt, Greece, India, Laos, Mauritius, Thailand and Switzerland critically discuss these propositions in order to renew anthropology for the future. The volume concludes with an Afterword from Tim Ingold.

"This is an interesting and welcome contribution to a scholarly debate that has triggered considerable attention among anthropologists and others over the last few years. It brings together six chapters that engage with Ingold' s intervention about ethnography vs anthropology by critically asking how Ingold' s views can be put into practice. " Oskar Verkaaik, University of Amsterdam
