Sound Ethnography in Collective Action. A Proposal for Collecting and Interpreting Data

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This article describes sound ethnography, a procedure for gathering and analyzing data that explores the sound and musical dimensions of collective action, concretely protest marches. This research methodology seeks to an-swer the question, “How does sound contribute to the political and cultural objectives of marches?” Sound ethnology for this purpose was developed in fieldwork carried out in mass marches in Mexico City between 2014 and 2020, most aligned with the political left. This approach, which is part of the sensorial turn of sociology and anthropology, aims to contribute to restoring the sensorial, emotional, and corporeal dimensions of sociocultural proces-ses, long ignored by the social sciences.
