"When I was asked by the editors of this journal to write a short piece on Mormon anthropology, it seemed to me that two kinds of tasks were implied: first, to provide some indicative references to the anthropology written about Latter-day Saints, which Ann Taves has said is less familiar to scholars of religion including herself; and second, more broadly, to offer a brief account of what a comparative, plural, and perspective-sensitive approach to Mormonism - now also being called for by scholars in other fields, notably in a key issue of Mormon Studies Review - might look like from the point of view of an anthropologist."
