Cultural Anthropology Fieldwork Journal 2nd Edition

Cultural Anthropology Fieldwork Journal 2nd Edition:

To study anthropology, ethnographic fieldwork is an essential tool that can seem intimidating to students. For those using the introductory textbook, Cultural Anthropology: A Toolkit for a Global Age, Second Edition, Ken Guest’s Cultural Anthropology Fieldwork Journal, Second Edition is a valuable supplement. The journal provides practical exercises that prompt students to apply the concepts they are learning in class to the real world. It guides them through activities that encourage them to observe, question, and collect data about the relationships, networks, and places that they may take for granted in their everyday life, including family dynamics, consumption habits, and even TV screens.

Each exercise in the Fieldwork Journal reinforces the ideas covered in Cultural Anthropology: A Toolkit for a Global Age, allowing students to practice essential fieldwork skills such as note-taking, interviewing, map-making, and drawing informed conclusions based on careful observation. The Fieldwork Journal is designed to be compact and user-friendly, with plenty of space for students to record their notes and data.
