In the conclusion we will call for an anthropology based, not on a single project or author, but a larger communal movement of academics that emulates the global nature of the object of enquiry. The term manifesto is also justified by the claim that global phenomenon require a new form of global anthropology. It is pitched against the established philosophical sense of ontology that assumes being always resides in depth, and that things of the surface, such as clothes, are intrinsically superficial, a concept of being that is by no means shared by all peoples (Miller 1995). Our manifesto is a call to make manifest the profound nature of that response. The term manifesto is justified by the evidence presented in this paper that denim is such a grounded analogue to philosophy one that is employed by populations to resolve major contradictions of living within the modern world and associated forms of anxiety. So, an anthropological manifesto will be one that makes manifest what otherwise is implicit in the practice of populations. By contrast, we propose a particularly anthropological field for the manifesto, based on anthropology's belief that philosophical insight can be grounded in the experiences of ordinary people as observed through ethnography. The word manifesto is generally acceptable with respect to either some critical political or social agenda, or alternatively a philosophical or art movement. To claim that denim is an appropriate subject for a manifesto may at first appear frivolous, almost a parody. Keywords: Denim, jeans, clothing, global, anxiety, anthropology Ultimately this can provide the basis for an anthropological engagement with global modernity. As a manifesto, this paper argues for a global academic response that engages with denim from the global commodity chain through to the specificity of local accounts of denim wearing. These suggest the need to understand the relationship between three observations: its global presence, the phenomenon of distressing and its relationship to anxiety in the selection of clothes. Ethnographies of blue jeans in Brazil and England are provided as examples. While there are historical narratives about the origins, history and spread of denim, these leave open the issue of how we make compatible the ethnographic study of specific regional appropriations of denim and its global presence in a manner that is distinctly anthropological. Using the phrase 'blindingly obvious' it considers the problems posed by objects that have become ubiquitous.
