On Being Italian, Canadian and Global
Knowledge, power and the implications of digitization for
ethnographic practice

Ethnographic practice ‘Knowledge, however interesting, can never
be disinterested’ (Acciaioli, 1981, p. 23). Participant observation is the central and
innovative method of anthropology. It provides the research with grounded close observation of individual and collective social action within a cultural context.

Mark Poster - What’s the Matter With the Internet (2001)
Internet is ‘underdetermined’ because it doesn’t direct users into clear paths and encourages ‘social construction and cultural creation… it remains an invitation to a new imaginary.’
The internet is transgressive because it enables instantaneous many to many communications, dislocates communication from the space of the nation
