Facing Janus: Reflections on Social and Political Change

This article is based on a conversation between the President of the Society for the Anthropology of Consciousness and the Editor-in-Chief of its journal. The aim of this conversation is threefold: (1) to engage a broader audience within the field of the anthropology of consciousness, (2) to discuss the recent history of the organization and its current direction, and (3) to recognize why concrete efforts toward a practice of decolonization is essential to maintaining the relevance of an anthropology of consciousness.
