Ethnicity Cultural Background Ethnography Foreign Countries Research Methodology Information Science Information Science Education Researchers Archives Ethnic Groups This paper argues that researchers involved in cultural heritage preservation need to adopt a more inclusive ethnographic research methodology that pays special attention to how power, class, and status shape the communities we study. Based on observations from field research in Ghimes-Faget, Romania, we discuss why the Hungarian ethnic identity was chosen as the village's most visible representation although residents had many other identities from which to choose. We show how local efforts to preserve culture, history and self "in one direction" were shaped by the current socio-economic reality in the village. Our findings suggest that identity selection is influenced by shifting power relations between ethnic groups over time as much as it is by the dominant ethnic group in a community. In an effort to show how existing research falls short, we discuss why one recently proposed "culturally responsive research methodology" could not support any kind of legitimate preservation agenda in Ghimes or any other community. |
