Anthropologist J. Christopher Kovats-Bernat argues that when an anthropologist pursues studies of ethnography of violence, the anthropologist and informant must have what type of relationship between them?

  b. Self-preservation.
  c. Respect.
  d. Mutual advantage.
  e. Mutual responsibility.

Question 2

New international conditions have created problems and opportunities for anthropologists working in the field. What are some of the challenges that J. Christopher Kovats-Bernat associates with doing ethnography of violence?
 
  a. There is often unstable political organization, difficult and dangerous physical conditions, and difficulties in making ethical decisions.
  b. Informants do not want to work with the anthropologist because of lack of anonymity and the anthropologist cannot live in a central location.
  c. Social conditions are difficult, the anthropologist faces challenges in breaking local laws, and newspapers will not publish personal interest stories.
  d. It is difficult to study violence because it is infrequent and cannot be controlled. Also, the anthropologist frequently cannot get official permission to work in areas of violence.
  e. Violence is a cultural concept and anthropologists find it difficult to define this term. The ethnography of violence, according to Kovats-Bernat, is an ethnocentric concept.
