Luke Eric Lassiter charts the history of collaborative ethnography from its earliest implementation to its contemporary emergence in fields such as feminism, humanistic anthropology, and critical ethnography. On this historical and theoretical base, Lassiter outlines concrete steps for achieving a more deliberate and overt collaborative practice throughout the processes of fieldwork and writing. As a participatory action situated in the ethical commitments between ethnographers and consultants and focused on the co-construction of texts, collaborative ethnography, argues Lassiter, is among the most powerful ways to press ethnographic fieldwork and writing into the service of an applied and public scholarship. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e A comprehensive and highly accessible handbook for ethnographers of all stripes, \u003ci\u003eThe Chicago Guide to Collaborative Ethnography\u003c\/i\u003e will become a fixture in the development of a critical practice of anthropology, invaluable to both undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty alike.\u003ch3\u003eFront Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCollaboration between ethnographers and subjects has long been a product of the close relationships that define ethnographic research.
