From the Back Cover:
Culture and Truth is a call for a new approach to thinking and writing about culture. Exposing the inadequacies of old conceptions of static, monolithic culture, and of detached, "objective" observers, the book argues instead for social science to acknowledge and celebrate diversity, narrative, emotion, and the unavoidability of subjectivity. In this edition, a new introduction gives powerful reasons for protecting diversity within and outside the academy.

FROM THE DUST JACKET: "Culture and Truth that cultures be studied not as reified wholes but as processes through which people understand their lives. Rosaldo believes that culture critics should pay greater attention to change through time. In particular, he advocates subjectivity in social analysis and the use of narrative to avoid portraying human life as static. His vision of social analysis concentrates on borders - the lines along which different groups work and live with divergent understandings. Drawing upon his own background as a Chicano as well as upon the works of three Chicano writers, Rosaldo claims that culture by their very nature are heterogeneous and always working in a realm of borders. [.] Witty, insightful, and persuasive, it is destined to revivify and transform the study of culture.?. Seller Inventory # 073017
