Over the last decades Clifford Geertz’ interpretive anthropology has played an important role in the field of socio-cultural anthropology. The study presents the critical reception of his thoughts in Western countries and Polish anthropology. Interpretive anthropology is based on the category of interpretation and the concept of thick description: the assumed indexical nature of reality and the possibility of unraveling its order through semiotic analysis has influenced the epistemological reflection in anthropology, the approach to theory, fieldwork and the research process.
Katarzyna Majbroda is Assistant Professor at the Department of Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology, University of Wroclaw, Poland. Her interests include 20th literary theory, gender criticism, methodology and theories of socio-cultural anthropology and cultural critique.
