Editors introduction
Abstract
In anthropologist Claude Levi Strauss’s 1962 book The Savage Mind, he uses the term “bricolage” to describe how societies draw on pre-existing materials to solve new problems. The “bricoleur” draws on “odds and ends” at hand to grapple with emergent realities. The field of “Asia-Africa” studies is, in many respects, a field of bricolage.
