Summary

Ethnographic fieldwork is one of the most fundamental (and for students, sometimes daunting) tools for anthropological study. In a new supplement for the introductory textbook Cultural Anthropology: A Toolkit for a Global Age, Ken Guest’s Cultural Anthropology Fieldwork Journal helps students apply the concepts they are learning in class while out in the real world. The step-by-step exercises in the Fieldwork Journal encourage students to observe, question, and generate their own data about the places, relationships, and networks that they may take for granted in everyday life: from friendships, family dynamics, and consumption habits to classrooms, places of worship, TV screens, and their own homes.Designed to complement Cultural Anthropology: A Toolkit for a Global Age, every activity in the Fieldwork Journal enhances students’ understanding of the concepts covered in the parent textbook. When paired with each chapter’s reading, practicing fieldwork skills such as note-taking, interviewing, map-making, and drawing large-scale conclusions from careful observation will engage students more deeply in the course material. Compact and easy to use, the Fieldwork Journal includes space to write notes and record data.
