Introduction
This special issue of places ethnography at its centre and considers how it is framed by the biographies of those involved. Probing some of the more unexpected connections that may arise between these parallel worlds, we discuss how collaborations between anthropologists and those they study inform the moral judgements and ethical practices that pervade the experience of fieldwork. What are the after‐lives of such encounters? What role does the m…
Moral judgement close to home
In theory, anthropologists should suspend judgement of those they study – that is, on the grounds of cultural relativism. In reality, however, moral judgements undoubtedly pervade the everyday experience of fieldwork, not to mention that anthropologists sometimes take an explicitly critical stance towards the societies they study. This essay, together with others in this special issue, explores the consequences for this when the ethnographer has …
Plasmonic Luneburg lens antenna synthesized by metasurfaces with hexagonal lattices
The metasurface lens composing of 2D periodic metallic patches on a grounded dielectric slab possesses several advantages such as being light, low-profile, compact, and also cheap to manufacture. In this paper, a Luneburg lens synthesized by a metasurface and designated for use as a surface wave antenna is proposed. Two types of unit cell will be compared, one whose surface wave modal dispersion varies significantly with the grazing direction and…
Affirmative action at work
Reported here are the results of a mail survey of 113 graduates from the University of California, San Diego, School of Medicine. Fifty-seven had been admitted with assistance of the Special Admissions Subcommittee (SAS) and 56 had been admitted through the traditional Recruitment and Admissions Committee mechanisms. SAS graduates see more patients daily, and practice more often in primary care specialties in rural and inner-city areas, providing…
