Abstract

The author reviews the fine ethnographic analyses in this special issue and argues that they become more coherent if power is understood as a sociotechnological network. This further implies that anthropologists' conclusions about how power is exercised must be modest, both historically situated and politically targeted, if the discipline wishes to contribute meaningfully to holding the powerful to account.

富人，穷人，中间人，东西:分配权力

作者回顾了本期特刊中的优秀人种学分析，并认为如果权力被理解为一个社会技术网络，它们就会变得更加连贯。这进一步意味着，如果人类学家希望为追究权贵的责任做出有意义的贡献，那么他们关于权力如何行使的结论必须是适度的，无论是历史背景还是政治目标。

期刊介绍： Critique of Anthropology is dedicated to the development of anthropology as a discipline that subjects social reality to critical analysis. It publishes academic articles and other materials which contribute to an understanding of the determinants of the human condition, structures of social power, and the construction of ideologies in both contemporary and past human societies from a cross-cultural and socially critical standpoint. Non-sectarian, and embracing a diversity of theoretical and political viewpoints, COA is also committed to the principle that anthropologists cannot and should not seek to avoid taking positions on political and social questions.
