          Abstract

          LA ETNOGRAFÍA GENERALMENTE SE ENTIENDE COMO UNA ESTRATEGIA DE REPRESENTACIÓN, UNA FORMA de escritura y en menor medida, una metodología de investigación. Este artículo, basado en una etnografía en colaboración con investigadores indígenas colombianos, sugiere que la etnografía es más que un texto escrito o un método para recoger datos; es un espacio crítico en el cual los antropólogos y nuestros interlocutores podemos participar conjuntamente en la co-teorización (la creación de nuevas construcciones teóricas). La apertura de la etnografía a tales posibilidades, particularmente en casos de colaboración con organizaciones de base, no sólo tiene significación ética sino que tiene el potencial de aportar nuevas perspectivas a la disciplina.

          Translated abstract

          ETHNOGRAPHY IS GENERALLY UNDERSTOOD AS A REPRESENTATIONAL STRATEGY, A FORM OF WRITING AND to a lesser extent, as a research methodology. This article, based on collaborative ethnography with Colombian indigenous researchers, suggests that ethnography is more than a written text or a method of collecting data, but a critical space in which anthropologists and our interlocutors can engage in co-theorization (the creation of new analytical constructs). The opening up of ethnography to such possibilities, particularly in cases of collaboration with grass-roots organizations, is not simply of ethical import, but holds the potential of contributing new theoretical insights to our discipline.
