Abortion: Understanding Differences
SIDNEY CALLAHAN AND DANIEL CALLAHAN This book, like many other things to do with abortion, is a product of long controversy. Though carried out with cooperation, it was conceived in conflict. The conflict between the coeditors has per sisted for years-in fact, for at least half of their thirty-year marriage. One, Sidney, is prolife; the other, Daniel, is prochoice. Ever since the topic of abortion became of professional interest to us, in the 1960s, we have disagreed. At one time, while Daniel was writing a book on the subject, Abortion: Law, Choice and Morality (1970), we talked about the subject every day for the four years of the book's gestation. On many occasions during the 1970s, proli...

Net et terrain
L'anthropologie de la nature ne concerne plus seulement des groupes sociaux localisés et présumés homogènes. Elle s'intéresse aussi aux réseaux, aux ramifications complexes et aux échanges globalisés que révèle Internet. Pour étudier les représentations que les humains se font de leur environnement et rediscuter la distinction entre nature et culture, il est désormais nécessaire d'articuler expériences de terrain et enquêtes sur le Net. Tout en mobilisant des données collectées au cours de plusieurs séjours en Afrique, les auteurs de cet ouvrage reconsidèrent les techniques d'investigation ethnographique en anthropologie de la nature. Les imaginaires de la sauvagerie dans...
