Accompaniment with Im/migrant Communities: Engaged Ethnography

Editat de Kristin Elizabeth Yarris, Whitney L. Duncan
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 iul 2024
This collection brings together the experiences and voices of anthropologists whose engaged work with im/migrant communities pushes the boundaries of ethnography toward a feminist, care-based, decolonial mode of ethnographic engagement called “accompaniment.”
Accompaniment as anthropological research and praxis troubles the boundaries of researcher-participant, scholar-activist, and academic-community to explicitly address issues of power, inequality, and the broader social purpose of the work. More than two dozen contributors show how accompaniment is not merely a mode of knowledge production but an ethical commitment that calls researchers to action in solidarity with those whose lives we seek to understand. The volume stands as a collective conversation about possibilities for caring and decolonial forms of ethnographic engagement with im/migrant communities.
This volume is ideal for scholars, students, immigrant activists, instructors, and those interested in social justice work.

Recenzii

“This cutting-edge volume brings together some of the most well-respected migration scholars who, through their critical and reflexive ethnographic engagements and writing, demonstrate the possibilities of anthropological practice as truly collaborative and politically engaged. The volume’s unifying theme of accompaniment take us to multiple sites and spaces where we may reimagine our roles as scholar-activists and contribute to meaningful and material change and justice for the communities we work alongside.”—Wendy Vogt, author of Lives in Transit: Violence and Intimacy on the Migrant Journey

“Adapting the methodology of acompañamiento (accompaniment) from the social commitment of liberal theologians, editors Yarris and Duncan and their many collaborators offer an applied, engaged, and activist ethnography that stands in unabashed solidarity with the most vulnerable of border crossers.”—CHOICE Connect
 
 

Descriere

This edited volume is a collective conversation between anthropologists, activists, students, im/migrants, and community members about accompaniment—a feminist care-based, decolonial mode of ethnographic engagement. Across the chapters, contributors engage with accompaniment with im/migrant communities in a variety of ways that challenge traditional boundaries between researcher-participant, scholar-activist, and academic-community member to explicitly address issues of power, inequality, and well-being for the communities they work with and alongside.
