المعرفة المحلية: مقالات أخرى في الأنثروبولوجيا التأويلية (Local Knowledge)

مقدمة

Local Knowledge (1983) collects essays written in the decade after The Interpretation of Cultures. Its title comes from the closing essay on law, which compares Islamic, Indic and Malay ideas of fact and law as forms of “local knowledge”. “Blurred Genres: The Refiguration of Social Thought” observes that social scientists increasingly borrow from the humanities and explain social life by analogy with games, drama and texts. “From the Native’s Point of View” asks how an anthropologist can understand how people in Java, Bali and Morocco conceive of the self without claiming to share their inner experience. Other essays treat common sense and art as cultural systems. The volume carried interpretive anthropology into law, history and literary studies.
