Cosmopolitan Archaeologies

edited by Lynn Meskell

The essays in this volume address archaeological ethics, exploring the obligations to local communities which archaeologists increasingly observe, and the global political contexts in which they operate, drawing on recent developments in cosmopolitan theory and ethics. The contributors examine the ways in which archaeology interacts with local contexts and struggles over cultural heritage, as well as conservation and ecological movements, and address the differences and tensions between cosmopolitan and multicultural thinking. 296p (Duke UP 2009)
