Two ethnographic maps

Transport in Two-Dimensional Maps

We study transport in the two-dimensional phase space of C r diffeomorphisms (r ~ 1) of two manifolds between regions of the phase space bounded by pieces of the stable and unstable manifolds of hyperbolic fixed points. The mechanism for the transport is associated with the dynamics of homoclinic and heteroclinic tangles, and the study of this dynamics leads to a general formulation for the tra...

Ethnographic demography: the use of ethnographic texts by demographers

Reassembling Ethnographic Museum Collections

This volume addresses fundamental questions about the nature, value, and efficacy of museum collections in a postcolonial world and the agency of indigenous people in their production. The book’s primary focus lies with those objects that, by way of their specific histories, have been defined as “ethnographic”; however, the question of the contexts in which things are defined as “art” as oppose...

Infrastructure and Ethnographic Practice

By bringing together science studies, information science and ethnographic fieldwork in interdisciplinary research the author argues for the relevance of ethnographic practices when studying information systems as infrastructures of communication. Ethnographic fieldwork focuses attention on fringes and materialities of infrastructures and renders the researcher able to read the invisible layers...
