Being There: The Fieldwork Encounter and the Making of Truth

Being There: The Fieldwork Encounter and the Making of Truth

by Borneman (Author)

Synopsis

Challenges to ethnographic authority and to the ethics of representation have led many contemporary anthropologists to abandon fieldwork in favor of strategies of theoretical puppeteering, textual analysis, and surrogate ethnography. This title argues that ethnographies based on these strategies elide important insights.
