Episode 43
A farm labourer and builder’s mate in England, a porter in Scotland, a new immigrant in Israel - Professor Nigel Rapport’s anthropological fieldwork has offered him opportunities to explore the precious reality of human individuality around the world.
And for him, love is a form of public or civil behaviour, a means that people can interact with one another in a way that is more honest or true to that individuality.
