Dear All,
We are pleased to announce that our new book, Extraordinary Encounters: Authenticity and the Interview (Katherine Smith, James Staples and Nigel Rapport (eds)) is now published with Berghahn publishers. See:
http://www.berghahnbooks.com/title.php?rowtag=SmithExtraordinary
This edited collection explores the interview as it poses theoretical and methodological challenges for the discipline of anthropology. It explores those challenges and argues that the interview should be seen as a special, productive site of ethnographic encounter, a site of a very particular and important kind of knowing. In a range of social contexts and cultural settings, contributors show how the interview is experienced and imagined as a kind of space within which personal, biographic and social cues and norms can be explored and interrogated. The interview possesses its own authenticity, therefore - true to the persons involved and true to their moment of interaction - whilst at the same time providing information on human capacities and proclivities that is generalizable beyond particular social and cultural contexts.
