About This Item
New York: Routledge / Taylor & Francis, 2004. Paperback octavo, very good condition, figures, minor edgewear. 216 pp. This impressive collection of papers, edited by Paul Shackel and Erve Chambers (both anthropology professors, University of Maryland). The discipline of archaeology is squarely placed in the modern world, to confront the real world challenges of multiculturalism and diasporic communities. The book is set out in three themes. The first theme is about recognizing the social and political structures of communities and empowering subordinated groups. The second theme is about making archaeology applicable to nontraditional communities. The third theme is about how professionals use archaeology to understand and create a sense of heritage.
