The book combines work between scholars from different universities in the U.S. and Denmark. Thus, besides bringing the two disciplines in dialogue, it also cuts across differences in national contexts and academic style. The interdisciplinary efforts of the contributors demonstrate how such a collaboration can result in new and challenging ways of thinking about trust and hope. Reading the dialogues may, therefore, also inspire others to work in the productive intersection between anthropology and philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e“The dialogues within this volume are theoretically dense and ethnographically rich, each providing unique avenues of thought that would perhaps warrant books in themselves.”\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e• Social Anthropology\/Anthropologie sociale\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e“While this book is seemingly aimed primarily at an anthropological audience, there exists a clear desire to make a contribution to both disciplines. As a result, this book is incredibly valuable for those interested in producing scholarship in either discipline, in addition to interdisciplinary work. Moreover, the dialogues that make up the majority of the text demonstrate the possibility, as well as the difficulty, of putting two importantly distinct disciplines in conversation with one another. It demonstrates the possibility of making explicit the intellectual companionship between anthropology and philosophy, ensuring that this text is a resource for both disciplines.”\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e• Anthropology Book Forum\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e“This volume is a serious, innovative, and patient attempt to meet disciplinary difference with candour, and to work beyond it; it is imbued with the sobriety and good faith of its contributors.
