Description
Edited by Hideyo Kurimoto, Isao Murahashi, Miki Ito, Osamu Nakagawa What is the essence and essence of fieldwork? [The book explores the clues necessary for understanding the "other" and for "coexistence" with the "other. The basis of anthropology is fieldwork. It is an activity of "relating" to others through long-term contact with "others" whose cultural and social backgrounds differ from one's own, in order to understand them deeply. For anthropology, "engagement" is not merely a means to collect primary data necessary for research, but is an interaction with others, and in the process, both oneself and others are transformed. The process of engagement is never smooth, and is full of complications, misunderstandings, and conflicts. Anthropology differs greatly from the other humanities* and social sciences in this respect, which attempt to maintain scientific objectivity by avoiding personal involvement with the object of study. However, despite its essential importance to anthropology, "kakuremi" has rarely been the subject of research. This book is the first anthropological book in Japanese to squarely address the academic significance of kakoriai. The book provides a concrete, critical, and self-reflective examination of the ways in which the participants engaged with others in the course of their fieldwork in Japan and other parts of the world, and what the experience was like for them and for others. Engagement is not limited to anthropology. All human beings live their daily lives in relationship with others. While the isolation of individuals and the weakening of human ties have become problems, modern society demands the inclusion of a diverse range of others. The anthropologist's way of seeking to engage with others has universal implications. This book is ideal as a textbook for learning what anthropology is and as a practical introduction to intercultural understanding* and coexistence with diverse others. |
