Anthropology is no longer a single discipline, but rather a range of different practices carried out in a wide variety of social contexts. New questions have been posed by the challenge which third world, black and feminist scholars have provided to the established agenda of the social sciences and humanities in recent years. It is in this context that the nature and purpose of social knowledge, and in particular anthropological knowledge, comes into particular focus.
