Organizational Ethnography and Anthropology

This study aims to analyze some of the theoretical, conceptual and methodological implications between organizational anthropology and ethnography. Starting from the assumption that ethnographic analysis and interpretive research in organizational anthropology has an emergent and symbolic role rooted in social processes and without a priori assumptions, with explanations and categories defined by organizational actors. The method used is based on analytical and descriptive questions from the theoretical and empirical review of the literature that leads to reflective analysis. It is concluded that the ethnographic methodology is pertinent to be used in the analysis of its interactions with organizational anthropology as a new specialty in organizational studies.
