{"product_id":"9781478003953","title":"Decolonizing Ethnography : Undocumented Immigrants and New Directions in Social Science","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn August 2011, ethnographers Carolina Alonso Bejarano and Daniel M. Goldstein began a research project on undocumented immigration in the United States by volunteering at a center for migrant workers in New Jersey. Two years later, Lucia LÓpez JuÁrez and Mirian A. Mijangos GarcÍa-two local immigrant workers from Latin America-joined Alonso Bejarano and Goldstein as research assistants and quickly became equal partners for whom ethnographic practice was inseparable from activism. In Decolonizing Ethnography the four coauthors offer a methodological and theoretical reassessment of social science research, showing how it can function as a vehicle for activism and as a tool for marginalized people to theorize their lives. Tacking between personal narratives, ethnographic field notes, an original bilingual play about workers' rights, and examinations of anthropology as a discipline, the coauthors show how the participation of Mijangos GarcÍa and LÓpez JuÁrez transformed the project's activist and academic dimensions. In so doing, they offer a guide for those wishing to expand the potential of ethnography to serve as a means for social transformation and decolonization.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Duke University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48949340373227,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":47.51,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9781478003953-1.jpg?v=1783109672","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/products\/9781478003953","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
