doi  abstract   bibtex   
The first part of this essay sketches out some of the ways in which the Boasian, Weberian, and Durkheimian understandings of the objects and categories of socio-cultural knowledge were transformed by the interpretive and symbolic turns in cultural anthropology in the 1960s and 1970s. It then looks at two exemplary contemporary critiques of the culture concept.
