Anthropologies of Revolution
What can anthropological thinking contribute to the study of revolutions? The first book-length anthropological approach to revolutions, Anthropologies of Revolution proposes that revolutions should be seen as concerted attempts to radically reconstitute the worlds people inhabit.

In particular, the author sug…

The article problematises this view by concentrating on the 'Isāwiyya, a Libyan brotherho…
