Anthropology and Public Relations Today: Annotated Bibliography of Recent and Significant Anthropological Research of Import To Public Relations Practitioners

By Marcia L. Watson

Underwritten by a generous grant from General Motors

This bibliography consists of recent anthropological research, reviews, and theoretical works that bear upon the work of public relations practitioners. Most items in this list have been published within the last ten years and have been culled from scholarly journals in anthropology or are public relations articles that draw heavily upon anthropological research (no claim to representativeness, however, is made). It is hoped that this list will promote integrated research between anthropology and public relations.
