These past couple of days, I have been in Abuja, trying to learn about the trade policies of Nigeria and that of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) (the ECOWAS headquarters is in Abuja). Today, at a meeting with a trade policy official at the Nigerian ministry for commerce and industry, after some discussion, I chanced to mention that I am an anthropologist. He looked at me and asked. ‘What is an anthropologist doing with trade policy?’

Well, a familiar question! This is how I answer it often: Anthropologists can be involved in everything anything anywhere anytime 😉
