Resumen

This review of The Crisis of Cultural Intelligence: The Anthropology of Civil-Military Operations by David Hyndman and Scot Flower examines the ethical and political implications of anthropologists participating in military and intelligence operations within indigenous and conflict-affected communities. Hyndman traces the historical and ongoing use of cultural knowledge by ABCA states (America, Britain, Canada, Australia, New Zealand) for counterinsurgency and strategic purposes, highlighting the profession’s internal divisions over such practices. The work underscores the tension between anthropology’s ethical codes and state-driven “cultural intelligence” agendas, particularly in relation to Fourth World peoples.
