Kurzfassung:
Leading figures in modern European social anthropology are brought together to talk about conceptualizing society, and they engage in a lively debate on some of the fundamental theoretial questions in the discipline. They agree on one basic issue: social anthropologist must confront the models curren in the social sciences with the experiences and models of their subjects. Nevertheless, their essays present divers approaches to this fundamental project ranging from the action-based modes of network theorists through the subtleties of the neo-structuralists to the daring experiment of the new cognitivists.
