Abstract: This article analyzes the situation of still nationally based institutions for anthropological teaching and research, and both assesses and imagines a different vision for anthropologies that are truly post-nationalist, cosmopolitan and collaborative in the production of research projects, both in the training of students and in later endeavours of comparative ethnography. The situation of China especially is assessed as a participant in post-nationalist anthropology.
Keywords: ethnography, post-national, cosmopolitan, collaboration, modernity, comparative method.
