The category of responsibility has a long genealogy within the discipline of anthropology and it surfaces in contemporary debates as well as in anthropologists' collaboration with other disciplines, including when anthropology is applied in fields such as development, medicine, and humanitarian response. As a category that unsettles, challenges and critically engages with political, ethical and epistemological questions, responsibility is central to anthropological theory, ethnographic practice, collaborative research, and applied engagement. With chapters focused on a variety of cultural contexts, this volume considers how anthropology can contribute to a better understanding of responsibility,\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction: Anthropology and responsibility\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMelissa Demian, Mattia Fumanti and Christos Lynteris\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1 Edgy imaginaries: \"Ghost’\"orangutans, extinction, and responsibility in a plantation landscape\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLiana Chua\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e2 The responsibility to consume: Excessive ‘environmentourism’ against rhinoceros extinction in South Africa\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStasja Koot \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e3 Responsibility versus responsibilization: Mafiacraft, witchcraft and the rise of conspiracy thinking today\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeter Geschiere \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e4.
