Hakken, David
Among the most important transformations in the discipline of anthropology over
the last hundred years are changes in our conception of what constitutes anthropological
knowledge. In the wake of the adoption early in the Twentieth Century of ethnographic
fieldwork as something of a methodological standard in social and cultural anthropology
came an implicit recognition of the cultural relativity of knowledge, that what counts as
“known” varies from cultural to culture. Over the century, this recognition co-existed
more or less uneasily with the Malinowskian and both earlier and later forms of
commitment to a “science” program in the discipline.
