Environmental Anthropology: From Pigs to Policies, by Pat Townsend
To more fully appreciate the insights made by the chapters’ authors, one needs to have a pretty thorough understanding of the tenets of communitarianism and a basic familiarity with the writings of both classical and contemporary philosophers. For readers with this knowledge base, Community and Political Thought Today makes a welcome contribution along a variety of dimensions about communitarian and current political thought and the state of affairs in America
The chapters are organized in roughly historical sequence, after an introduction that presents a story about Townsend’s fieldwork in New Guinea and naming the fields of cultural anthropology, archeology, biological anthropology and linguistics
