Drawing on the authors’ fieldwork experience, this text explores how cultural creativity, human agency, and the material conditions of everyday life interact to shape cultural practices. Discussions of ongoing controversies – including tribalism vs. globalization and increasing inequality between “have” and “have not” regions – show how cultural anthropologists can tackle the world’s most pressing social problems through their specialized knowledge and skills.
