Resumo
During the last decade and a half, anthropologists have increasingly given up grand theoretical debates to pursue mid-level articulations that effectively cross many of the discipline's received divides and oppositions. In the process, a middle ground of increasing connections cross-cuts and cross-fertilizes academic theory and applied practice, regional and local scales of analysis, world areas, general structures and specific events, ethnography and history, and objectivism vis-à-vis reflexive or experimental genres of representation and analysis. Amid continuing challenges of anthropological method and representation, these post-paradigmatic articulations have opened sociocultural anthropology to important new ranges of perspective, topical fields, and critical interventions.
