Globalisation has dislocated community relations, and yet notions of community remain central to our sense of who we are. *BR**BR*This book examines the changing nature of community through an exploration of mobile subjects, such as migrants and business travellers, and the tension between culturally specific notions of identity and a universal sense of humanity. The authors develop a 'cosmopolitan anthropology' which engages with both the specific and the universal.*BR**BR*This book offers a new perspective on community through a dialogue between two eminent anthropologists, who come from distinct, but complementary, positions.
