JARAMILLO MARIN, Jefferson  and  VERA LUGO, Juan Pablo. Etnographies from and about the global South. Introductory Reflections. univ.humanist. [online]. 2013, n.75, pp.13-34. ISSN 0120-4807.

This article intended to suggest some analytical keys to think the complex and dynamic relationships around the production of ethnographies and ethnographic analysis from and about the global South. Throughout the text, we explore this relationship, which - despite the existence of a broad swathe of social sectors that are thinking about what it means to generate knowledge from and for the global South in line with their own realities - has hitherto been relatively underexplored by the Colombian academy. This brief text also serves as analytical gloss, for articles that are part of the monographic volume about the topic.

Keywords : Ethnography; Global South; Ethnographic approaches; Ethnographic methods; Ethnology; Human geography; Ethnic groups; Cultural relativism; Social anthropology.
