Thèmes de recherche

Her current work focuses on how central dogmas are made and how they work. Energy Choices in a Democratic Society (1980) is the initial work that has continued on the area of energy and resources. Harmony, Ideology--Injustice and Control in a Mountain Zapotec Village (1990) indicates her range of interests in law that has expanded in the national and international arenas. Naked Science--Anthropological Inquiry into Boundaries, Power, and Knowledge (1996) emerges from a position that attempts to synthesize contemporary work in anthropology. Essays in Controlling Processees (1994,1996) reflects a theoretical perspective that crosses disciplinary boundaries.
