This work argues that the reason for this is that ethnographic theorization is essentially improvisational in nature, conducted in real time and in necessarily unpredictable social situations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Improvising Theory represents the stupendous outcome of what should be an ordinary procedure - the interaction between a faculty member and her advisee in the field. What makes this book so remarkable is that both sides of this correspondence maintain a tone that is richly literary. Moreover, the exchange is a model for the kind of pedagogical relationship we should all aim to have with our students.\" - Michael Herzfeld, Harvard University\"","brand":"The University of Chicago Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49399941890391,"sku":"9780226100319","price":23.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780226100319.jpg?v=1730469218","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/improvising-theory-9780226100319","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
