Public Anthropology

What is “public anthropology"? Although the term can mean many things to many people, broadly defined, it refers to a movement among anthropologists to take anthropology beyond the university to address, work on, and speak out about the problems, concerns, and interests of the broadest possible publics, while reducing the boundaries that exist between anthropologists and the communities with whom they work.
