Welcome to Borneo Ethnography!
This course will explore the transformation in ethnography by examining ethnography of Borneo societies. It will be divided into three parts, namely, the concept of ethnography, its origin and evolution; ethnography as empirical methodology and cultural critique; and contemporary debates on ethnography, its roles, functions and relevance in the social sciences. Origins of ethnography, theory of reflexive ethnography and the future of ethnography will also be discussed. -
