This volume sets out \"thick comparison\" as a means to revive \"comparing\" as a productive process in ethnographic work: a process that helps to revitalise the articulation work inherent in analytical ethnographies; to vary observer perspectives and point towards \"blind spots;\" to name and create \"new things\" and modes of empirical work and to give way to intensified dialogues between data analysis and theorizing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContributors are Katrin Amelang, Stefan Beck, Kati Hannken-Illjes, Alexander Kozin, Henriette Langstrup, Jörg Niewöhner, Thomas Scheffer, Robert Schmidt, Estrid S rensen, and Britt Ross Winthereik.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47891491356823,"sku":"9789004181137","price":17045.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9789004181137.webp?v=1781183886","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/thick-comparison-reviving-the-ethnographic-aspiration-9789004181137","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
