| Summary |
"Anthropologists who are employed to enact change in the worlds they are researching find themselves in a potentially contradictory position. Combining the various roles and expectations involved in working with Gypsies and local government at the same time as conducting anthropological research, provides the overall perspective of this book. It is an unusual and effective balance of insightful ethnography and anthropological theory from the perspective of someone employed to carry out applied work."--Jacket |
