Anthropologica del Departamento de Ciencias Sociales es una publicación de la Especialidad de Antropología de la Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú que se edita desde 1983.

Anthropologica publica trabajos originales inéditos resultado de las investigaciones empíricas y etnográficas más recientes dentro de la antropología y disciplinas afines en el ámbito nacional e internacional, con énfasis en la región andina y amazónica. Se dirige a estudiosos de antropología, profesores universitarios, investigadores y académicos de las ciencias sociales y humanas.

La revista está compuesta por cuatro secciones: Artículos, Reseñas, Traducciones, y Testimonios para la historia de la antropología. Las temáticas dentro de estas secciones pueden ser muy variadas como se puede observar al revisar los números anteriormente publicados. Las mismas deben ser, sin embargo, relevantes a la antropología y disciplinas afines.

    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.

    Castillo, G. y Soria, L. (2023). La ciudad desde la antropología: miradas etnográficas. Lima: Fondo Editorial de la Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 404 pp.
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-07-28) Vega Romá, Pablo
    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

    Etnografía, improvisación y narrativas digitales
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2022-08-29) Ramos Mancilla, Oscar
    This paper presents some ideas related to the difficulties that may happen during the fieldwork and that may urge us to improvise in order to be able to continue with our ethnographic research. However, these decisions must consider the implications of improvisation in terms of knowledge production and specifically in methodological planning. To support these reflections, presents a fieldwork situation in which digital narratives were useful for rapport and to complement the field data. Thus, a remarkable aspect is that the reflection on improvisation in our ethnographic practice can lead us to an intentional experimentation that helps us to enlarge the robust methodological baggage of ethnography.

    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.

    Reflexiones sobre la complejidad del quehacer antropológico, nuestra posicionalidad, y subjetividades en la frontera (EEUU-México)
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2018-12-21) De la Piedra, María Teresa; Méndez, Zulema Y.
    In this article, we present our experiences as researchers - activists, who have analyzed the US - Mexico border through our ethnographies. We will present reflections about our positionalities and subjectivities as activists, teachers, scholars, and residents of this border region. We conduct two different ways of activist research that we call 1) activist ethnography in the classroom, and 2) activist ethnography on the streets. We discuss the characteristics of eachone of these forms of activist research, the commonalities and differencesof both ways. We present our findings involving our own autobiographies and a theoretical analysis drawing from other activist - researchers who also use ethnography for research and activism.
