“…Anthropologists continued to question the nature of the knowledge they produced, culminating perhaps in the post-modernist suggestion that the ethnography was essentially a text, a genre of literature to be decoded rather than accepted as objective account (see Clifford and Marcus, 1986). However, not all anthropologists abandoned claims to objectivity (eg D'Andrade, 1995;Lewis, 1973) and latterly there has been renewed debate about the basis of its knowledge claims (eg, Wilson, 2004;Hastrup, 2005;Engelke, 2008;Lambert, 2009;Fabian, 2012). Anthropological data continue to be collected experientially through fieldwork but, as Hastrup (2005: 141) puts it, this entails situating 'oneself in the amorphous field between subjective and objective'.…”
