In this issue, we give Cornelius Holtorf of the University of Wales (Lampeter), Bob Trubshaw, editor of At The Edge magazine, Bill Bevan, landscape archaeologist, and Kenny Aitchison of the University of Sheffield, a platform to air their views.
In Why Fascists Don't Like Postprocessualism, Cornelius Holtorf comments on popular misconceptions about the political implications of relativism.
In Who's Fringe Now?, Bob Trubshaw writes about the relationship of orthodox and "fringe" research concerning the archaeological past.
In Roads to Nowhere? Archaeology, landscape and a process that by-passes more than towns, Bill Bevan voices concerns about the investigation and conservation of archaeological landscapes in the face of road-building and other development.
In Working in field archaeology and the Institute of Field
Archaeologists, Kenny Aitchison calls for mobilisation within the IFA towards
improvements in pay and conditions of employment for junior field archaeologists.
