Reviews
"The volumes focus on activism and identity provides a compelling image of an activist strategy for advancing social research." -- Elisia L. Cohen, Argumentation And Advocacy, "Local Actions is a welcome volume that represents a (still) rare instance of anthropologists engaging in the study of political processes in western society; it provides us with detail-rich and nuanced understandings of politics as it takes place in practice, and in everyday settings." -- Davide Pero, Social Anthropology, "The strength Checker and Fishman's Local Actions is in its clearly written, accessible case studies of efforts at social change." -- Karen Brodkin, Identities: Global Studies in Culture and Power, "Engagingly written, the volume will appeal across the readership spectrum, from general readers to professionals...Recommended. All levels and libraries." -- Choice

Synopsis
Gathers two hundred poems by the twelfth-century Japanese poet, and offers a brief introduction to his life and the traditions of Japanese court poetry., Ten absorbing studies present activist groups across the country -- from transgender activists in New York City, to South Asian teenagers in Silicon Valley, to evangelical Christians and Palestinian Americans -- and examines a social change effort as it unfolds on the ground. Through their anthropological approach these portraits of American society suggest the inherent possibilities in identity-based organizing and offer crucial in-depth perspectives on such hotly debated topics as multiculturalism and the culture wars, the environment, racism, public education, Native American rights, and the Christian right.
