Humor negro en el contexto de la muerte encefálica
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2024-06-18) Baranowski, Carolina Andrea; Martínez, Bárbara
In this article, we propose to analyze how healthcare personnel involved in organ and tissue procurement activities use black humor during their daily work. The objective here is twofold: on the one hand, following previous studies, we are interested in showing the role of black humor as a way of dealing with death. On the other hand, we suggest that, in a parallel and complementary way, in this context black humor exposes a performative sense as a form of agency that attempts to modify an adverse reality. This work combines the methodological tools provided by ethnography and conducting open, multi-session interviews. The events revealed during the fieldwork and interviews that associate humor and brain death show the uses, limits and ways in which black humor operates in daily healthcare work of physical and emotional complexity.

La ciudad desde la antropología: miradas etnográficas is a book, edited by Gerardo Castillo and Laura Soria, which brings together a set of academic articles that provide a diverse reflection, at a thematic and methodological level, on anthropological debates around the city. This publication, which links in its chapters the analysis of the spatiality of the places addressed with the dynamics that constitute the social groups that inhabit them, represents a key contribution in the field of urban anthropology research

Una introducción strictu sensu. Malinowski a bordo del portaaviones ARA 25 de mayo
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-02-17) Guber, Rosana
This paper shows how we can use the Introduction of Bronislav Malinowski’s The Argonauts of the Western Pacific in our research today, a century later. In this specific case, and going through a double commemoration in 2022, I explain the logic with which I structured an ethnographic method class in April 2021. I did so by taking advantage of a subject that was foreign enough to my students, prompting them to raise questions and to understand the structure, the imponderabilia of real life and the natives’ mentality. In my own case, the natives are the real Other of the Argentine academia: the military sailors of the Argentine Navy, with whom I tried to understand how they experienced the Anglo-Argentine conflict for the Malvinas/Falklands and other South Atlantic Islands (1982).

Malinowsky for today?
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-02-27) Damon, Frederick H
From the point of view of a contemporary Kula Ring ethnographer, this paper surveys Malinowski’s heritage, sums up the current state of Kula Ring research, and asks of the status of the ethnographic research heritage Malinowski did much to define. All recent Kula Ring anthropologists partly define themselves with respect to Malinowski’s tradition. And the resultsof their work over the last 50 years again made the region central to the discipline for part of the recent past. But today Malinowski’s Trobriand corpus is being redefined. New lines of inquiry are contributing to our understanding of the area. And Malinowski’s methods have fertilized other portions of our social system and branches for self-reflection. As it shouldbe, what Malinowski helped define is very much with us.
