CUNHA, Manuela Ivone  y  LIMA, Antónia. Ethnography and the public sphere: summarizing questions. Etnográfica [online]. 2010, vol.14, n.1, pp.61-69. ISSN 0873-6561.

In line with the conference “Ethnografeast III: Ethnography and the Public Sphere”, from which it stems, this dossier aims at equating uses and products of ethnography as they relate with each other within the context of the public sphere. Keeping the conference’s commitment to interdisciplinarity, pluralism in genres and theoretical suasions, it focuses on the way political and civic uses of ethnography enter into the conceptual elaboration of its products, and, conversely, on how the design and implementation of ethnographic research may contribute to enhance public debate.

Palabras clave : ethnography; public sphere; social issues; relevant research; uses of ethnography.
