CL: ANTH 2310 (770). Notes: The Tuesday meetings for this class will be held in person, and the Thursday meetings will be conducted online. Topical Course Description: We are in one of the largest, most diverse and most exciting field sites in the world: Tokyo. We will exploit this fact to explore urban space and place, society and sociality, people and practices through direct ethnographic fieldwork. Based on our readings, you will develop a reseach theme that your group will pursue over the course of the term. You will collect and synthesize data, and put it together for your final project.
Class Practice: This course will require that you go into Shibuya to observe, interact and especially to collect field notes each week--sometimes alone, sometimes with your group. We will alternate between presenting/discussing the course readings and presenting your field notes from your site that will illustrate, contradict, expand or dislocate our readings. As the course goes on and your involvement with your field site becomes more complicated, we will do less reading and more writing, mapping, photography and video on your themes that will allow you to complete your final project--a website that captures your research.
