Ep #71 Entrepreneurism in Academia and Ethics on The Ground: This Month of TFS

The Familiar Strange

This week on TFS, the Strangers continue with our new panel format and dive deeper into the topics of entrepreneurism and ethics. They talk about how universities and by extension academia is becoming more and more business-like with academics having to “build their brands” in order to find success. The conversation then shifts to discuss the current ethical framework of Anthropology. The Strangers share their experiences with fieldwork ethics and how modern anthropology has started to slowly adopt new ethical practises. Head to our Website for a full list of links and citations!
