从西非雨林的一个村庄搬到欧洲城市的一个西非社区需要什么？从一个希腊牧羊社区转向与罗马和曼谷的被驱逐者和住房活动人士合作，怎么样？在《躁动的人类学家》一书中，阿尔玛·戈特利布（Alma Gottlieb）汇集了八位著名学者，讲述了将一个人的生活和数十年的工作连根拔起的引人入胜的个人和智力动态，以拥抱一个新的田野。
《永不停歇的人类学家》的撰稿人讨论了生命历程、研究方法、机构支持、专业网络、人种学模型和学科范式转变等问题，讨论了他们早期和后期项目在学术和个人层面上的比较方式，描述他们选择的环境，以及鼓励他们继续前进、重新成为新手的动机。在这样做的过程中，他们对自己学科的一些核心期望提出了质疑，重新想象了他们学术生活中心的人类学田野空间。
The Restless Anthropologist: New Fieldsites, New Visions
What does a move from a village in the West African rain forest to a West African community in a European city entail? What about a shift from a Greek sheep-herding community to working with evictees and housing activists in Rome and Bangkok? In The Restless Anthropologist, Alma Gottlieb brings together eight eminent scholars to recount the riveting personal and intellectual dynamics of uprooting one’s life—and decades of work—to embrace a new fieldsite.
Addressing questions of life-course, research methods, institutional support, professional networks, ethnographic models, and disciplinary paradigm shifts, the contributing writers of The Restless Anthropologist discuss the ways their earlier and later projects compare on both scholarly and personal levels, describing the circumstances of their choices and the motivations that have emboldened them to proceed, to become novices all over again. In doing so, they question some of the central expectations of their discipline, reimagining the space of the anthropological fieldsite at the heart of their scholarly lives.
