Abstract

The article responds to the paper "Learning From New Orleans: The Social Warrant of Hostile Privatism and Competitive Consumer Citizenship," by George Lipsitz in this issue. The author considers Lipsitz's work in relation to ethnographic efforts to analyze the characteristics of the complex changes in everyday life. The concept of social warrant is considered to be linked to cultural activism and critique.
