"Practicing Anthropology in the South" consists of seventeen essays addressing the ways in which sociocultural anthropologists put their anthropological training into practice. Organized as a key symposium of the Southern Anthropological Society's annual meeting, this collection continues the theme of the 1975 symposium entitled "Do Applied Anthropologists Practice Anthropology?" The contributions to this volume illustrate how anthropological activities have changed in the intervening generation--the formation of a second national professional organization, the appearance of new texts, the development of practicing internship and mentoring programs, and the migration of many Ph.D. anthropologists to jobs outside universities. This volume focuses on the development of practical skills and knowledge, making it an ideal tool for preparing anthropology students for both nonacademic and university job markets. Representing anthropological imagination at its best, Practicing Anthropology in the South illustrates the vitality, range, and relevance of practicing anthropology in the 1990s.
