RENGIFO GUTIERREZ, Juan Roberto. Experience, ethnicity, knowledge on recent ethnographies in Argentine of Gran Chaco (2000-2011). univ.humanist. [online]. 2013, n.75, pp.277-302. ISSN 0120-4807.

This paper examines some of the relationships between the ethnographic experience and knowledge that has been deployed on the ethnicity of the Great Chaco region in the first decade of the XXIst century in the argentinian anthropology. Considering that it is through "the lived experience" in the field that knowledge is produced, there are two conditions as interpretive focus: the condition of displacement, otherness and space condition. It is argued that each of these conditions suggest to the recent ethnography of Gran Chaco, as field of experiences and practices that are temporarily, politically and historically located in relation to configurations, anthropological trajectories and subjectivities, whose heterogeneity is intertwined with the particularity of each lived experience in "the ethnographic field". The Cartesian dual dimension of the field work is questionned and the article shows how the epistemological dispute, by the Chaco ethnic alterity, is ascribed to specific forms of knowledge of the national anthropological academy.
