The Ethics of Knowledge Creation - Transactions, Relations, and Persons (Hardcover): Lisette Josephides, Anne Sigfrid Gronseth The Ethics of Knowledge Creation - Transactions, Relations, and Persons (Hardcover)
Lisette Josephides, Anne Sigfrid Gronseth
R3,796 Discovery Miles 37 960 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Anthropology lies at the heart of the human sciences, tackling questions having to do with the foundations, ethics, and deployment of the knowledge crucial to human lives. The Ethics of Knowledge Creation focuses on how knowledge is relationally created, how local knowledge can be transmuted into 'universal knowledge', and how the transaction and consumption of knowledge also monitors its subsequent production. This volume examines the ethical implications of various kinds of relations that are created in the process of 'transacting knowledge' and investigates how these transactions are also situated according to broader contradictions or synergies between ethical, epistemological, and political concerns.

Being Human, Being Migrant - Senses of Self and Well-Being (Paperback): Anne Sigfrid Gronseth Being Human, Being Migrant - Senses of Self and Well-Being (Paperback)
Anne Sigfrid Gronseth
R920 Discovery Miles 9 200 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Migrant experiences accentuate general aspects of the human condition. Therefore, this volume explores migrant's movements not only as geographical movements from here to there but also as movements that constitute an embodied, cognitive, and existential experience of living "in between" or on the "borderlands" between differently figured life-worlds. Focusing on memories, nostalgia, the here-and-now social experiences of daily living, and the hopes and dreams for the future, the volume demonstrates how all interact in migrants' and refugees' experience of identity and quest for well-being.

Mutuality and Empathy - Self and Other in the Ethnographic Encounter (Hardcover): Anne Sigfrid Gronseth, Dona Lee Davis Mutuality and Empathy - Self and Other in the Ethnographic Encounter (Hardcover)
Anne Sigfrid Gronseth, Dona Lee Davis; Contributions by Nigel Rapport, Giovanna Bacchiddu, Anita Maurstad, …
R2,074 Discovery Miles 20 740 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Focusing on issues of empathy and mutuality, and self and other, as experienced in the everyday challenges of doing participant-observation fieldwork, this volume makes a significant contribution to rethinking the experiential and conceptual construction of the field. The contributors adopt a critical and self reflexive approach that goes beyond issues of voice and representation raised by early postmodern anthropology, to grapple with issues concerning the nature of knowledge transmission that lie at the very heart of the ethnographic effort. They explore how multiple modes of attending, awareness and sense making can shape the ethnographic process. Of note are those unanticipated, less palpable forms of communication that are peripheral to or transcend more formalized and structured research methods and agendas. Among these are empathy, intuition, somatic modes of attention and/or embodied knowledge and identification, as well as, shared sensory experiences and aesthetics. By the elaboration of such concepts the volume as a whole offers a substantial elaboration of a phenomenological approach.
