Název v původním jazyce

Meeting the pre-textual. Intersubjective knowledge of long-distance care in the Philippines

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

In the chapter I focus on care: what caring for the family means, how proper care is learned, how one breaks rules, and how this embarrassing fact is covered up. I will draw on examples from my fieldwork in the Philippines, paying particular attention to how care practices were revealed to me, through different encounters with immigrant and non-immigrant family-members. Based on this attempt to define what care may be in a relationship, I will show how one can be out of tune with proper care behavior and so provoke others to rework their ideas in ways which enable them to accommodate the discrepancy in behavior. The norms are embodied, pre-textual, and learned slowly through incorporation. I propose a meta-reflection upon how knowledge is gained in fieldwork, often through painful misunderstanding. I will end by concluding that in a dynamic situation of mobility the immigrant, but also the anthropologist, becomes an instrument of revealing what is understated or not expressed verbally at all.
