FERRO, Lígia  y  GONCALVES, Renata de Sá. Urban ethnography: exploring contemporary cities - introduction. Etnográfica [online]. 2018, vol.22, n.2, pp.305-310. ISSN 0873-6561.  https://doi.org/10.4000/etnografica.5360.

The dossier “Urban ethnography: exploring contemporary cities” focuses particularly on the potential and constraints of ethnographic practice carried out in different urban contexts - Oporto (Portugal), Barcelona (Spain) and Yachay (Ecuador) - and working from diverse disciplinary backgrounds (anthropology, sociology, psychology and political science). The papers share common analytical axes and are all crossed by the discussion about the possibilities of producing ethnography in the city, including relevant questioning of its sociopolitical, technical and methodological dimensions. Researches included in the dossier offer fine examples of the main challenges faced by current work in urban ethnography.

Palabras clave : urban ethnography; cities; interdisciplinarity; methodology; methods.
