Dear list members,
Please consider contributing to our panel 104 "Post - 'Lonely Hero':
Accompanied research, cooperative knowledge production and epistemology" at
the World Anthropological Union Congress 2024 in Johannesburg, South Africa.
The CfP is open until 27 May 2024:
https://waucongress.org/panel/pn104/
Keywords
knowledge production, methodology, normativity, positionality
Abstract
The call invites for an analysis of concomitant shifts in knowledge and
practice of anthropology. In that mode, the consequences resulting from
privileges and restrictions can be assessed. While the Lonely Hero pattern
(Gottlieb 1995) of field research has passed its zenith after 100 years and
collaborative knowledge production among peers or in training situations has
become more common in the field, the reverse question of the family ties of
individual research personalities in the field has still been little
addressed. Not only, but especially in the so-called post-doc phase, fewer
and fewer researchers are "alone" in the field. Although there are isolated,
reflective reports on the dynamics of family situations in the field
(Cassell 1987; Braukmann et al. 2020), a more comparative analysis of the
connection between family and field-specific embedding is still lacking. The
silence about the roles of the various 'accompanying persons' (researching
or non-researching partners, children, .) in the process of ethnological
knowledge generation presents itself as a missed opportunity for the
reflexive generation of empirical knowledge in view of the local differences
in normative concepts of family life. The "relational self" of the
researcher ultimately formulates the "doings and undoings" of anthropology.
The panel invites contributions with fresh empirical data on the
above-mentioned topics. We are particularly interested in the following
topics: - Accompanied fieldwork - Shared knowledge production (with
reference to family) - Normativity of the researcher and accompanying
individuals - Positionality in the field - Care-work in the field - Ethical
questions (with reference to family and shared knowledge production) -
Questions of embodiment
