Resumen de Case Study:: Fieldwork in Undergraduate Anthropology: For and Against
There is some disagreement among teaching anthropologists in Britain about whether fieldwork for undergraduates should be encouraged. This paper discusses some of the relevant arguments on both sides and describes some of the courses in which fieldwork currently has a place. In the last part of the paper I describe my own recent experience trying to introduce a fieldwork element into a new course, and I examine the success and failure of the course in the light of the current arguments.
