Educating Otherwise: Contexts, Interventions and Radical Possibilities of Anthropological Learning

Learning and education are fundamental to human experience – yet they have often been side-lined in anthropological inquiry. Educating Otherwise brings these questions to the centre, exploring what anthropology can reveal about how people learn, and what learning reveals about anthropology itself. Spanning formats ranging from short essays to ethnographic fiction, the volume is organised around five themes: anthropology as education, decolonising the academy?, student-academic collaborations, anthropology and the university, and anthropology across disciplines. Together, these examine how anthropological education can perpetuate exclusion and privilege while also offering vivid, grounded accounts of more regenerative ways of teaching and learning.
