The series includes critical, comparative, analytical, and narrative studies involving all aspects and subfields of anthropology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Volume 14, \u003ci\u003eCentering the Margins of Anthropology’s History\u003c\/i\u003e, focuses on the conscious recognition of margins and suggests it is time to bring the margins to the center, both in terms of a changing theoretical openness and a supporting body of scholarship—if not to problematize the very dichotomy of center and margins itself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The essays explore two major themes of anthropology’s margins.

In 11 insightful chapters, contributors explore overlooked scholars who were marginalized due to their subdiscipline, attempts to make their work socially relevant, where they worked, their gender and heritage, the types of writing they pursued, and critical institutional events.\"—N.

This volume brings to light a plethora of authors, studies, and subjects that are often left on the periphery of the discipline so that we can discover and rediscover forgotten heroes.
