Ethnography #9
As Alan Klima writes in <i>Ethnography #9</i>, "there are other possible starting places than the earnest realism of anthropological discourse as a method of critical thought." In this experimental ethnography of capitalism, ghosts, and numbers in mid- and late-twentieth-century Thailand, Klima uses this provocation to deconstruct naive faith in the "real" and in the material in academic discourse...

Authoring Autism
<div>In <i>Authoring Autism</i> Melanie Yergeau defines neurodivergence as an identity-neuroqueerness-rather than an impairment.

She also critiq...
