| Sumario: | "Anthropology of Transformation. From Europe to Asia and Back" is a book that explores the societal transformations that occurred after the collapse of communist regimes in Europe and Asia. The book serves as a tribute to Professor Chris Hann's work and provides a platform for scholars to critically engage with his ideas. The contributors use ethnographic research to deepen our understanding of the enduring questions addressed by Hann and challenge the analytical lens of 'transition'. The book also examines themes of modernity, morality, and identity, and raises important questions about the use of terms like 'postsocialism' and 'transformation'. The case studies presented in the book demonstrate the ongoing relevance of studying the interaction of political rule, social forms, and cultural values in different contexts.
