Other People’s Anthropologies: Ethnographic Practice on the Margins
Anatomy of a Blockade. Towards an Ethnography of Environmental Dispute (Part 2), Rural New South Wales 1996

I argued that the unpacking of environmental disputes was an appropriate starting point. In this paper, I develop this further by detailing the politics of a forest blockade in southern NSW in 1996. The blockade has long been an important element in environmental conflicts for it can prove an effective political manoe…

Notwithstanding the relatively self‐assured and self‐confident public image which social anthropology manages to maintain, there is little doubt that the discipline's encounter with post‐modern thought has resulted in a major assessment of long‐established methodological procedures. This paper provides a provisional ledger of the nature of that encounter. It is argued that not only does a critical eye need to be turned on some of the post‐moderni…
