Résumé

Stephen Grant Baines’ essay reveals an exceptionally energetic career in an- thropology, focusing on what I call “useful anthropology,” which addresses dilemmas facing real people and communities in the present day. He does this by employing conventional anthropological methods and theory, in particular ethnographic fieldwork, in a wide variety of locations, including prisons, rural Indigenous communities, urban settings, government offices, and many more. His aim, in one branch of his work, has not been to study the Indigenous cultures of Brazil, but rather to see them in relation to the nation, to law, and to industry. His approach to theory, I believe, foregrounds efforts to understand these relationships.
