| book description |

Decades-old calls to recognise Chinaâ€™s significance for anthropological theory and the social sciences are more urgent than ever. Yet, Chinese-grounded ideas remain marginal, with China often seen as an â€˜Otherâ€™ rather than a source of widely applicable theory. Drawing on East Asian postcolonial scholarship, this volume argues that without taking China seriously as a knowledge producer and a key agent in a post-global world, social scientists risk misinterpreting the global present. As Western globalisation wanes and anthropology reassesses the relationship between ethnography and theory, we show how â€˜Chinaâ€™ must be understood as an ordinary, integral context for research worldwide. -- .
