This aspect is becoming increasingly important in today’s critical analysis of the status of anthropology. Drawing on the insights of radical anthropologists, this article explores the economic and political context that shapes anthropological practice. While radical critics of the 1970s were confronted with well-defined sources of authority, the rise of neoliberalism disperses power and complicates the pursuit of critical anthropology. The question remains: Can critical anthropology maintain its potency amidst the influences it seeks to challenge? This question resonates as a central introspective point for contemporary critical anthropologists, inviting them to navigate the complex web of power, subjectivity, and socio-political context in their pursuit of transformative scholarship.}, type={Text}, title={Revisiting Positionality in Critical Anthropology: From Radical Roots to the Challenges of Neoliberal Academia}, URL={http://www.rcin.org.pl/iae/Content/240383/276737.pdf}, keywords={critical anthropology, radical anthropology, positionality, reflexivity, neoliberalism}, }
