This chapter describes a collaborative anthropological project involving nine researchers who studied social media behaviors and practices. Their collective effort yielded multiple outputs, including accessible summaries of research results tailored for non-specialist readers. By deepening collaboration among team members, the study achieved a remarkable balance between the breadth and depth of its findings. The author presents this approach as a compelling alternative to the traditional “lone wolf” model of conducting extended, solitary fieldwork, and analysis.

Methodological Choices to Produce Collaborative and Comparative Research: The Case of “Why We Post”

  • Juliano Spyer

摘要

This chapter describes a collaborative anthropological project involving nine researchers who studied social media behaviors and practices. Their collective effort yielded multiple outputs, including accessible summaries of research results tailored for non-specialist readers. By deepening collaboration among team members, the study achieved a remarkable balance between the breadth and depth of its findings. The author presents this approach as a compelling alternative to the traditional “lone wolf” model of conducting extended, solitary fieldwork, and analysis.
