Professor Carole McGranahan edited and co-wrote the introduction and an essay in HIMALAYA - The Journal of the Association for Nepal and Himalayan Studies Special Section - Himalayan Flashes: Regional Ethnography in Short Form

Summary

As HIMALAYA, the Journal of the Association for Nepal and Himalayan Studies, celebrates its 52nd year, we are thrilled to present Volume 43, Issue 2, Autumn 2024. This issue is especially notable because it features the unique collection ‘Himalayan Flashes: Regional Ethnography in Short Form’, co-edited by Sienna R. Craig and Carole McGranahan. The collection emerges from a new wave of ethnographic writing that values brevity without sacrificing depth or nuance. Curated from sessions at leading conferences, these flash ethnographies offer powerful glimpses into the social and cultural landscapes of the Himalayan region, spanning from Nepal’s highlands to urban environments in the United States. Despite their concise format, these essays resonate with rich insights, making this issue a landmark in the journal’s history and in the broader field of Himalayan studies.ÌýThis issue also carries five research articles, one photo essay, one conference report, and one film and two book reviews.
