Abstract

The article discusses the book by Albert Piette, highglighting its original standpoint vis-à-vis the current prevailing ontological non-dualism in the social sciences and humanities, anthropology included. Such standpoint consists in a plea for a methodologically motivated and critically situated separation between observing and observed entities, and for an embodied, rather than merely relational, account of the human being.
