The introductory essay to this collection correctly observes that there are many "challenges for rapprochement" between anthropology and (the rest of) cognitive science. Still, the possibilities of fruitful interchanges provide some hope for the parties getting back together, at least on an intermittent basis. This response offers some views concerning the "incompatibility" of psychology and anthropology, reviews why cognitive anthropology drifted away from cognitive science, and notes two areas of contemporary interest within cognitive anthropology that may lead to a re-engagement.
本论文集的引言部分正确地指出,人类学和(认知科学的)其他领域之间存在着许多“调和的挑战”。尽管如此,富有成效的交流可能性为双方重新走到一起提供了一些希望,至少是间歇性地走到一起。本文针对心理学和人类学的“不兼容性”提出了一些观点,回顾了认知人类学为何偏离认知科学,并指出了认知人类学中两个当代感兴趣的领域,这可能会导致重新接触。
