An edited collection which examines the theoretical issues surrounding power, and particularly empowerment, which uses ethnographic analysis as its basis. It takes material from the Middle East, Canada, Columbia, Australasia and various parts of Europe and Africa. It looks particularly at the extent to which traditionally disempowered groups gain influence in postcolonial or multicultural settings, and at how power relates to economic development, gender and environmentalism.
Angela Cheater is the author of a number of influential books in social anthropology, including Social Anthropology: An Alternative Introduction (1986). She has taught social anthropology at the universities of Natal, Zimbabwe, Cape Town and Waikato.
