The following works
reflect the myriad concerns anthropologists have for both the people they
conduct ethnographic research among and the building of theories which relate
to an anthropology engaged with and committed to the public. Whether implied
or through a direct connection, these works address the tangible human condition,
public policy, social change and community action. In specific, these readings:
1. address
the specific ways inequalities of class, sexual preference, region, gender,
age, race, physical ability, and other social variables shape power relations
2. constitute
a global analysis of the social, historical, political, and economic forces
that present challenges and cause difficulties in communities
3. present
information that is accessible to the public by limiting alienating jargon
4. focus
on the voices and concerns of the populations we engage and not issues determined
by solely by researchers and/or institutions
5. offer
practical solutions to social problems as determined by community participation
or example
6. attend
to the limitations and/or inadequacies of anthropology historically and currently
This bibliography is
a working document, building on references recommended by ANTH faculty, graduate
students and other colleagues. Gaps in content areas can be closed, and imbalanced
treatments of critical issues can be corrected, as users of this bibliography
continue to pass forward additional references. Finally, there are no separate
sections for race, gender, class, etc. as these social variables are addressed
throughout these listings.
As one of the purposes,
this bibliography provides suggestions and guidance to students in the MAPA
program who are developing their reading lists and study plans for the MAPA
Comprehensive Exam. MAPA students are not expected to become familiar with
the entire inventory of references cited here. Rather, let these references
provide entry, as appropriate, to current directions in research, theory-building
and activism in various domains of Public Anthropology.
