Cuerpos en el entorno: reflexiones para una etnografía de las percepciones ambientales

Perceptions are a central analytical tool to environmental anthropology. Studying perceptions implies, from a phenomenological perspective, a redefinition of ethnography and the role of the ethnographer. Using the analysis of unplanned experiences of ethnographic fieldwork, our aim is to unravel some of the potentialities and limits of non-discursive approaches to environmental perception. Experiences wherein the corporality of the researcher — as an ethnographic tool — and her/his estrangement play a central role. © 2020, Asociacion de Antropologos Iberoamericanos en Red.
