ABSTRACT
It is common nowadays to maintain that the traditional anthropological confidence in the solidity of its analytical subjects, namely ‘local cultures’, ‘isolated communities’, or ‘pure kinship structures’ has recently been undermined. As my chapter is aimed at providing a closer look at the ways in which people nowadays construct the relationship between culture, community and place, this reconceptualization of the anthropological subject needs to be taken into account and subjected to further careful scrutiny.
