Introduction: Comparative ethnography : its promise, process, and successful implementations / Edward D. Lowe and Michael Schnegg -- Thinking with comparison in the anthropology/ historical anthropology of migration / Caroline B. Brettell -- Comparing tangerines : Dorothy Lee and the search for an authentic individualism / Richard Handler -- A comparative ethnographic study of suicide epidemics in two Pacific island societies / Edward D. Lowe -- The comparison of structures and the comparison of systems : Lévi-Strauss, Dumont, Luhmann / Guido Sprenger -- Regional comparison in historical anthropology : three case examples from South Arabia / Andre Gingrich -- Scaling ethnography up / Michael Schnegg -- Best, worst, and good enough : lessons learned from multi-sited comparative ethnography / Jennifer S. Hirsch, Holly Wardlow, Daniel Jordan Smith, Harriet Phinney, Shanti Parikh, and Constance A. Nathanson -- Research across cultures and disciplines : methodological challenges in an interdisciplinary and comparative research project on emotion socialization / Birgitt Röttger-Rössler -- Global sport industries, comparison, and economics of scales / Niko Besnier and Daniel Guinness.

A new and important contribution to the re-emergent field of comparative anthropology, this book argues that comparative ethnographic methods are essential for more contextually sophisticated accounts of a number of pressing human concerns today. The book includes expert accounts from an international team of scholars, showing how these methods can be used to illuminate important theoretical and practical projects. Illustrated with examples of successful inter-disciplinary projects, it highlights the challenges, benefits, and innovative strategies involved in working collaboratively across disciplines. Through its focus on practical methodological and logistical accounts, it will be of value to both seasoned researchers who seek practical models for conducting their own cutting-edge comparative research, and to teachers and students who are looking for first-person accounts of comparative ethnographic research.
