The Workshop on United States Locations explores current ethnographic research on the United States. While emphasizing anthropological approaches, we provide a forum for all ethnographers examining the US as a socio-cultural entity, within, across, and outside the boundaries of North America. Over the

past decade, a re-emergent anthropology of the US has incorporated the legacies of ethnographic sociology, critical geography and sociolinguistics. Continuing in this tradition, we invite scholars from across the disciplines to participate in regular meetings. We will critically analyze the burgeoning literature on ethnographic practice and theory, as well as focus on carefully formulated empirical studies.
