Learning outcomes

This course, designed for undergraduate students, uses several teaching techniques and classroom activities (lectures, ethnographic interviews, encounters with experts, ethnographic films) to introduce the student to a critical knowledge of key concepts, methods, and tools of anthropology, and of debates that originate within contemporaries theoretical and ethnographic contexts.

Program

The first part of the course will introduce students to some of the key notions of the discipline such as culture, border, belonging, relativism/universalim, empathy, knowledges, practices, looking at them from a decentered perspective which will allow for a defamilarization of the conventional gaze, a gaze too often blurred by our taken-for-granted certitudes.
In the second half of the course, through the use of ethnographic study cases from Oceania, we will analyze in greater detail the relations between ethnographic gaze and locally produced knowledge. A part of the course will be devoted to methodology focusing on the ethnographic interview.
