It is a critical view of a new methodological and epistemological fashion in anthropology

It is a collection of authors with different ethnographic expertise and well-developed theoretical positions

It is a provocation to open up a debate that is important for anthropology but to the social sciences more generally

It is an important source for academics and practitioners of humanitarianism as well as political activists, for whom issues of morality are central to their concerns.
