The Chicago Guide to Collaborative Ethnography (Chicago Guides to Writing, Editing, and Publishing) - Tapa blanda

"Compulsory reading for all budding ethnographers."--Ian S. McIntosh "Australian Journal of Anthropology " "I declare myself greatly satisfied by this book. It is a welcome reminder that in the pursuit of knowledge those who possess and are custodians of it should be rightly acknowledged."--Susan Young "Anthropological Forum " "[The book] promises to provide essential classroom material for budding anthropologists. Not only does Lassiter articulate the epistemological basis for cutting-edge ethnography, he also provides concrete examples of anthropological praxis that seeks to empower real people."--Samuel R. Cook "Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute " "Lassiter presents a historical, theoretical, and practice-oriented road map for shift from incidental collaboration to a more conscious and explicit collaborative strategy. . . . It's a very important and timely, comprehensive and accessible book."--Waldemar Kuligowski "Anthropos " "A clear, comprehensive, and forceful description of the history, theory, and practice of collaborative ethnography, The Chicago Guide to Collaborative Ethnography propels anthropological practice into the social and political vortex of twenty-first-century social life. Luke Eric Lassiter complements long-standing discussions of the ethics of fieldwork practice with an insightful description of the complex and varied practices of collaborative reading and writing. Artfully filled with illustrative examples of the impact of collaboration on ethnographic research, this important and timely book is a must read for any scholar who plans to conduct social research."--;/P>--Paul Stoller"Paul Stoller" (06/01/2005) "This is a user friendly, accessible, and highly effective treatment of the practice of collaborative ethnography. Because of the changing politics and circumstances for doing fieldwork anywhere in the world, collaboration has needed to become an even more conscious component of method rather than just an awareness of mere critical sensitivity. The Chicago Guide to Collaborative Ethnography is the first work to tackle the problem of shifting collaboration as part of the ideology of fieldwork. Here, Luke Eric Lassiter makes it part of the norms and forms of practice rather than its secret or unspoken condition. He thus recuperates collaboration and brings it from the ideology of fieldwork to an integral and explicit form of method."--;/P>--George Marcus"George Marcus" (05/15/2005) "A clear, comprehensive, and forceful description of the history, theory, and practice of collaborative ethnography, The Chicago Guide to Collaborative Ethnography propels anthropological practice into the social and political vortex of twenty-first-century social life.
