Michael Fisch on Tokyo Commuter Train Suicides

.

We're happy to announce the launch of the Society for Cultural Anthropology's new podcast, AnthroPod! Each episode we'll be interviewing anthropologists about their work, current events, and their experiences in the field.

The first installment is an interview with Michael Fisch, Assistant Professor of Anthropology and of Social Sciences at the University of Chicago. His essay "Tokyo's Commuter Train Suicides and the Society of Emergence" appears in the May 2013 issue of Cultural Anthropology.

You can find AnthroPod at SoundCloud, subscribe to it on iTunes, or use our RSS feed.
