and how it is used.

Then choose TWO of these concepts, and write a short essay in which you apply it to ONE of the following “ethnographic” examples below. In this essay, first describe

the cultural assumptions that inform this project (e.g., the NGO project described in MOD or the dam project depicted in Drowned Out, or the conservation projects

depicted in CIOGN). Then explain the strengths and limitations of your chosen concept as it applies to this specific example. Be sure to use examples from the text or

film and to defend your argument. If the concept does not apply, that is also finejust explain how and why it does not apply, according to you, and be as thorough in

your answer as possible:

1) Drowned Out
2) The assigned chapters of Elyachar, Markets of Dispossession
3) The assigned chapters from Paige West
4) Ferguson’s chapter on the Bovine Mystique in The Anti-Politics Machine.

For this test you may structure the first half in non-essay formatas definitions, using full sentences. The second half should be structured as a short essay, double-

spaced. This essay should simply answer the question. It does not require a thesis statement or introductory paragraph, but should concisely address the cultural

assumptions and the application or non-application of your chosen concept.
