The range of focus in these ten essays is broad, including analysis of children's cartoons, manumission in the slaveholding American South, historic preservation in Washington, DC, clitoridectomy practices among the Kikuyu, and Sandinista cultural policy, among other topics. Collectively, the essays expose some rich veins of ambiguity and fluidity in anthropologists' understanding of the politics of culture. No index. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
