description | This article discusses how phenomenological procedures can be used to
instruct ethnographic research. Since doing ethnography in the field builds
on sensory perception, a closer inspection of relevant processes of
perception is necessary. Insights into the field that is studied are
dependent on the manner in which it is perceived. As Waldenfels'
"phenomenology of attention'' displays, the distribution of attention is of
crucial importance in this context. To get to grips with the uses of
phenomenology in the field, three areas of tension are explored:
proximity – distance, mixture – analysis and presence – recording.
These terminological pairs relate to tensions that structure experience and
the play of perceptions in the field. Based on a reflection of these
relations, the article offers a methodology that is characterized by
mobility, openness and a continuous highlighting of how the researcher's
corporal embeddedness into the field affects the distribution of attention. |
