DESCRIPTION:Social Anthropology Seminar\n\nMonday\, 26th September 2016\n
 Flavia Kremer\, University of Manchester\n\n‘’ Filmmaking and ‘The Excha
 nge of Men’: Exploring the use of film in research through Bororo ethnog
 raphy”\n\n\nThis paper builds on ethnographic material produced in field
 work among the Bororo people in Central Brazil\, in 2011-2012\, to asses
 s the impact of the use of filmmaking and film-elicitation methods on th
 e theoretical development of a Bororo notion of personhood. The spatial 
 design of the Bororo village and the dual logic of Bororo social thought
  served as recurrent examples in Lévi-Strauss' development of structural
 ism and his theorization of the dualisms (culture/nature\; male/female\;
  centre/periphery\, etc.) that continue to inform conceptual debates in 
 anthropology and beyond. Drawing on my ethnographic finding that\, contr
 ary to Lévi-Strauss' controversial claim\, it is Bororo women that excha
 nge men\, I suggest that we begin a discussion about the theoretical and
  epistemological implications of this inversion in subject position. In 
 doing so\, I advance an ethnographically grounded argument that the use 
 of film in anthropological research can deeply transform the experience 
 of participant observation and significantly contribute to the refinemen
 t of key theoretical concepts in the discipline.\n2.016/2.017\, \nSecond
