<DIV><p>The ongoing battle for hearts and minds in Iraq and Afghanistan is a military strategy inspired originally by efforts at domestic social control and counterinsurgency in the United States. <I>Weaponizing Anthropology</I> documents how anthropological knowledge and ethnographic methods are harnessed by military and intelligence agencies in post-9/11 America to placate hostile foreign populations. David H. Price outlines the ethical implications of appropriating this traditional academic discourse for use by embedded, militarized research teams.</p><p>Price's inquiry into past relationships between anthropologists and the CIA, FBI, and Pentagon provides the historical base for this expose of the current abuses of anthropology by military and intelligence agencies. <I>Weaponizing Anthropology</I> explores the ways that recent shifts in funding sources for university students threaten academic freedom, as new secretive CIA-linked fellowship programs rapidly infiltrate American university campuses. Price examines the specific uses of anthropological knowledge in military doctrine that have appeared in a new generation of counterinsurgency manuals and paramilitary social science units like the Human Terrain Teams.</p><p><B>David H. Price</B> is the author of <I>Threatening Anthropology: McCarthyism and the FBI's Surveillance of Activist Anthropologists</I> and <I>Anthropological Intelligence: The Deployment and Neglect of American Anthropology in the Second World War</I>. He is a member of the Network of Concerned Anthropologists and teaches at St. Martin's College in Lacey, Washington.</p></DIV>
