Anthropology and Anarchy

Course Description

Disciplines

Social & Economic Systems, Artistic, Interpretive, & Philosophical Inquiry

Anarchy - organizing society through horizontal relations of free association - has a modern European history contemporary with Anthropology and has Indigenous histories in many places where people decided together to organize society against the state and hierarchy. Readings survey anthropology of non-state societies and engage questions of how non-European anarchies of Black and Indigenous authors and organizers critique anthropological methods.
