Abstract

Researchers based in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) often cannot access conventional but high-priced ethnographic tools. I developed a low-cost methodology as an exercise in meeting the needs of both LMIC-based researchers and the broader qualitative community. As demonstrated in this proof of concept, ethnographic researchers should strive for a suite of open access software tools and common and affordable hardware to reduce inequities in knowledge generation and dissemination.

简而言之:降低人种学方法论的准入障碍。

低收入和中等收入国家的研究人员通常无法获得传统但价格高昂的民族志工具。我开发了一种低成本的方法，以满足LMIC研究人员和更广泛的定性社区的需求。正如这一概念证明所表明的那样，民族志研究人员应该努力开发一套开放获取的软件工具和通用且负担得起的硬件，以减少知识生成和传播方面的不公平现象。

期刊介绍： Field Methods (formerly Cultural Anthropology Methods) is devoted to articles about the methods used by field wzorkers in the social and behavioral sciences and humanities for the collection, management, and analysis data about human thought and/or human behavior in the natural world. Articles should focus on innovations and issues in the methods used, rather than on the reporting of research or theoretical/epistemological questions about research. High-quality articles using qualitative and quantitative methods-- from scientific or interpretative traditions-- dealing with data collection and analysis in applied and scholarly research from writers in the social sciences, humanities, and related professions are all welcome in the pages of the journal.
