The End of Anthropology, Again: On the Future of an In/Discipline.
The “End of Anthropology” has been predicted many times and for many different reasons — among them, its disappearing object of study, its political imbrication in colonialism, the loss of its distinctive concepts, and the effects of globalization in diffusing its received subject matter.
