- Offering a systematic exposition of the so-called ‘ontological turn’ in anthropology, this book includes parts of two outputs that were presented to REF2014 by Holbraad. The section titled ‘Culture as Invention’ of Chapter 2 (pp 76-88) incorporates in revised form material published in pp. 37-46 of Holbraad’s monograph Truth in Motion: The Recursive Anthropology of Cuban Divination (Chicago, 2012). The sections titled ‘Comparison all the way down’ and ‘Postplural abstraction’ of Chapter 3 (pp 121-140) incorporate in revised form material published in “Planet M: the intense abstraction of Marilyn Strathern,” which appeared in 2009 in Anthropological Theory 9(4): 371–394.
