This resource is a revision guide for the ethnography ‘In Search of Respect’ by Philippe Bourgois. Covers: context, history of migration, kinship, gender relations, children, adolescence/rites of passage, education, illegal and legal economy. There is also a revision card checklist at the end. This revision guide does not include every single detail as I would expect my students to use their more detailed notes to revise from also.

This lesson was created as a ‘lighting fires’ lesson for Y13 IB Social Anthropology, but could be used for taster sessions for the subject/introduction to the course. Please note, the extracts mentioned are from Joy Hendry’s Introduction to Social Anthropology book. However, you can substitute this information on different cultures with extracts from ethnographies you have/information online.
