on 7th and 8th Marc, 08. We cordially invite you to participate in the same.
Here is the detail,



*EXPLORATIONS IN ANTHROPOLOGY AND ALLIED DISCIPLINES: EMERGING TRENDS AND
CHALLENGES*

* *

*(An Inter-University and inter-disciplinary seminar)*

*Department of Anthropology*

*University** of **Delhi*

*March 7 and 8, 2008*



The discipline of anthropology has evolved from the study of simple
societies or primates, and has experienced a period of reflexivity and
recent changes with accompanying paradigm shifts. Emphasis have moved from
space to issue, local single-site to multi-sited ethnography, from culture
specific to global and transnational flow of people, capital, commodities,
and cultural events and from post modernist ethnographic writings to the
production of cultural and social theory.

Methods and Methodology of allied disciplines have their own significance in
the domain of anthropology. Other disciplines have also been trying to
evolve new methods and methodologies to face and answer the emerging trends
and challenges of socio-cultural and natural changes. This seminar is a
small attempt to provide a platform to budding scholars for sharing
knowledge on various topics ranging from methods and methodologies to work
being conducted in different disciplines.

The focus of the seminar is to perform an exploration in anthropology and
other allied disciplines while highlighting their strategies to cope with
the challenges faced by such disciplines in contemporary times.
