Resisting text-bound research: Towards a reversed approach to cultural studies (2)
In this article an argument is developed for a reversed approach of cultural studies in discussing problems regarding fieldwork, academic access and accountability. We also argue for an empirical space in cultural studies, for a greater acknowledgement of fieldwork done by Third-World scholars vis-a-vis seminal theory development in the Western world. The article discusses relationships between observers and the observed in terms of dependency, inclusions/exclusions, and borders and othering. We reflexively analyse tensions and contradictions set in motion by the writing of articles on observer-observed relationships within both the San communities themselves and among researchers and development and other agencies working in one of these areas. Issues addressed relate to the ownership of information, the relationship between the local/particular and the national/general policy, and on how to ensure informal discussions around the campfire as well as involvement of, and general access to the written product by a-literate and non-English-speaking communities.

Weerstand teen teksgebonde navorsing: 'n bydrae tot 'n omgekeerde benadering tot kultuurstudie
In hierdie artikel word 'n pleidooi gelewer vir 'n omgekeerde benadering tot kultuurstudie op grond van probleme op die terrein van veldwerk akademiese toeganklikheid en navorsingsverantwoordelikheid. Die skep van 'n empiriese ruimte vir kultuurstudie word bepleit om sodoende meer erkenning te gee aan veldwerk, wat deur Derdewereldvakkundiges gedoen word, vis-a-vis invloedryke teorie-ontwikkeling in die Westerse wereld. In die artikel word ook gelet op die verhouding tussen die waarnemer en die waargeneemde ten opsigte van afhanklikheid, insluiting/uitsluiting, grense en andersmaking ("othering"). Die spanning en teenstrydighede wat voortspruit uit die skryf van artikels oor die verhouding tussen waarnemer en waargeneemde (in sowel die San-gemeenskappe as tussen ons as navorsers en ontwikkelings- en ander agentskappe wat op een van hierdie terreine werksaam is) word op 'n nadenkende manier ontleed.
Metodologies word voortgebou op die resultate van twee vorige ondersoeke wat voortgespruit het uit ses jaar se veldwerk en navorsing in die Kalahariwoestyn. Hierdie navorsing is onderneem in San-gemeenskappe in Namibie, Botswana en die Noord-Kaap.
In afgehandelde navorsingswerk in die San-gemeenskappe (Tomaselli, 2001:283-318; McLennan-Dodd, 2003:448-469) wat deur 'n groep navorsers van die Universiteit van Natal onderneem is, is reeds 'n refleksiewe (3) pleidooi gelewer vir 'n omgekeerde benadering tot kultuurstudie deur te let op probleme ten opsigte van veldwerk, akademiese toeganklikheid en 'n navorser se verantwoordelikheid. In hierdie artikel word daarop voortgebou deur die verhouding tussen die waarnemer en die waargeneemde onder die loep te neem. Die oogmerk met hierdie artikel is onder andere om die rol van menslike bemiddeling in die analise van gegewens te betrek, te beskryf en die resultate daarvan in berekening te bring. …
