    About this ebook

    In this anthology a group of ethnologists and anthropologists demonstrate creative ways of relating phenomenology to the study of culture. A detailed overview of how perspectives like “being” and “life-world” can be applied to studies of everyday life as well as a historical background of phenomenology are presented, showing how culture can be understood more from how it happens than what it is.
