Purpose

To further develop research methodologies for multi-species ethnographic fieldwork, based on researcher's experiences with multi-species fieldwork in private wildlife conservancies in South Africa and inspired by San tracking techniques.

Design/methodology/approach

Reflections on methodological lessons learnt during multi-species ethnographic fieldwork in South Africa. The approach is rather “Maanenesque” in telling various types of tales of the field. These tales also implicitly show how all-encompassing ethnographic fieldwork and its accompanying reflexivity are; there is never time for leisure in ethnographic fieldwork.

Findings

That developing fieldwork methodologies in multi-species ethnographic research confronts researchers with the explicit need for and training in multi-sensory methods and interpretations, inspired by “the art of tracking” of the San.

Originality/value

Comes up with a concrete suggestion for a sequence of research methods for multi-species ethnography based on the trials and tribulations of a multi-species ethnographer's experiences in South Africa and inspired by San tracking techniques.

多种族民族志:南非实地方法学培训

目的

基于研究人员在南非私人野生动植物保护区进行多物种实地考察的经验并受到San跟踪技术的启发,进一步开发用于多物种民族志实地考察的研究方法。

设计/方法/方法

关于南非多种族民族志田野调查中汲取的方法学教训的反思。这种方法在讲述该领域的各种故事时相当“ Maanenesque”。这些故事也隐含地展示了民族志田野调查及其伴随的反身性。在民族志田野调查中从来没有时间休闲。

发现

在多族种人种学研究中不断发展的实地考察方法论使研究人员面临着明确的需求,并受到San的“追踪艺术”的启发而接受了对多种感官方法和解释的培训。

创意/价值

根据多种族民族志学家在南非的经历和磨难并受到San追踪技术的启发,提出了一系列针对多种族民族志的研究方法的具体建议。
