Educational histories of European social anthropology

"Aimed at professional anthropologists, their students and academic policymakers, the contributions to this volume provide an array of insights into the current teaching and learning of social anthropology across Europe. With case studies from eighteen different countries this volume presents a panorama of local histories, contexts and experiences, which are essential contributions to current debates on the role and significance of anthropology in an era of converging higher education policies. More practically, the volume offers teachers and students the possibility of developing international exchanges supported by a previously unobtainable knowledge of institutional histories and differing local contexts."--Jacket
