*Features* Cover Type: Paperback with 312 pages Published by: Routledge Edition: 1st Edition September 18, 1997 Written in: English ISBN 10 Number: 0415132215 ISBN 13 Number: 978-0415132213 Book Dimensions: 8.4 x 5.8 x 0.8 inches Weighs: 13.6 ounces *Product Description* IAnthropology of Policy argues that policy has become an increasingly central organizing principle in contemporary societies, shaping the way we live, act and think. This book shows how anthropological approaches to policy can provide insights into a range of contemporary issues, from equal opportunities to health care, from AIDS to housing policies. Despite the importance of policy as a key institution of modern society, it remains curiously under-theorized and lacking in critical analysis. In questioning and explaining policy's language and its links with power, the contributors challenge the accepted notion of policy as rational and progressively linear and pave the way for further research. *About The Author* Cris Shore is Lecturer in Social Anthropology at Goldsmiths College, London. Susan Wright is Lecturer in Social Anthropology at the University of Sussex. Back To Top
