Description
Summary:Experimenting with Ethnography offers concrete suggestions for thinking about and doing research and writing (i.e., analysis). The volume challenges the notion that analysis is simply an abstract, theoretical exercise, but rather, a concrete mode of action. The contributors come from a variety of intellectual traditions and are wide-ranging in their ethnographic approach. Each essay invites readers to take a step back from concepts, fieldwork and theories and center on the elusive work that needs to be performed before an argument can be completed. More specifically, the essays explore the deliberate processes for nurturing a space of play for things that have not yet materialized, opening up ways of experimental thinking through ethnographic knowing.
