Etnografiar las migraciones 'Sur'-'Norte': La inscripción en nuestros cuerpos de representaciones de género, raza y nación

Abstract

This article considers the problematic of the connections between gender, race, culture and migrations spanning different historic.al and social considerations. My principal aim is to share my expectations and experiences making ethnography during the time of my multi-localized fieldwork (Marcus, 1995). I argue, according to Okely that personal is not only political (1975, 1992), but also is theorical (Gregorio 2006:32). Relatedly, I try to "live" (following Jone Miren Hernández) my own ethnography, in order to understand it as "the experience of the anthropologist related to cultural attitudes of a certain society and not as expression of "the knowledge", which can be abstract, impersonal and lacks of context. (2012:1). In this way, I try to give back the value of knowledge to our bodýs experience as subjects which experiment, feel and get emotions; in direct confrontation with the typical neutrality and objectivity dogmas of the "scientific knowledge".
