Description

Placing the Manchester School at the vanguard of modern social anthropology, this book reveals the cosmopolitan distinctiveness of the intimate circle around Max Gluckman.

Such distinctiveness was driven by creative difference, travelling theories and innovative, interdisciplinary approaches.

The expansion of social anthropology as a dynamic, open discipline became the hallmark of the Manchester School.

The remarkable careers and legacies of the Manchester School anthropologists are shown for the first time through inter-linked social biography and intellectual history, to reach broadly across politics, law, ritual, development studies, comparative urbanism, social network analysis and mathematical sociology.

Werbner reveals that members of the circle engaged in deep dialogue, enduring friendships, and creative collaboration. -- .
