De la possession rituelle et du chamanisme à la Silicon Valley, l’anthropologie élargit aujourd’hui son champ d’observation. Elle réinterroge ses concepts et ses méthodes pour appréhender la complexité de notre monde contemporain en proie aux mouvements contradictoires d’une prolifération des diversités et d’une abolition des barrières. Cet ouvrage nous propose de suivre le travail de l’anthropologue, du choix d’un champ d’étude à l’écriture du résultat de recherches, en passant par les principales hypothèses théoriques de sa discipline, l’enquête de terrain, les concepts qu’il peut utiliser.
