Beschreibung
The ratio of representation and otherness and the problem of space in colonial and postcolonial contexts are the focus of this study. At the interface of ethnology, philosophy, and media studies, Carena Brenner determines the function of ethnology in the context of spatial politics. Based on individual films, she works out the question of how a pan-spatial production of meaning under conditions of globalization can be ethnographically recorded and displayed. The book thus overcomes some of the shortcomings of previous ethnographic examination of space.
