520 | |a This book seeks a reconsideration of the phenomenon of sorcery and related categories. The contributors to the volume explore the different perspectives on human sociality and social and political constitution that practices typically understood as sorcery, magic and ritual reveal.

The articles address a diversity of ethnographic contexts in Africa, Asia, the Pacific and the Americas. | ||
