| description |
The aim of this paper is to present the contributions of social network analysis to the ethnographic and archaeological domains. For this, we expose the basics assumptions of the relational research emphasizing on the generation of models with interdisciplinary validity, as well the results of an ethnographic research on textile activities in the Calchaqui Valleys of Salta. In our description of the textile activity, we use the notion of operational sequence, which involves actors, raw materials, technologies, processes and communities of practice. The study was founded on three hypothesis: 1) the textile activity coexists with other subsistence activities, that are developed between various actors and households; 2) the personal relationships in everyday activities are coupled in different levels -micro, meso and macro- of structure and social organization; 3) the obtaining of resources and activities of the households correspond spatially with ecological environments -"del alto" and "del bajo"- which are complementary regionally. Finally, we argue that theory and methodology of social network analysis constitutes a tool for the ethnographic research, as they stimulate the generation of hypotheses and promote adaptations in the research designs aimed at structural modeling of current and past social problems. Thus, it opens a heuristically fruitful field that builds bridges between ethnographic and archaeological research. |

El objetivo de este trabajo es presentar los aportes del análisis de redes sociales a la investigación en los dominios de la etnografía y la arqueología. Para esto, exponemos los supuestos básicos de la investigación relacional enfatizando en la generación de modelos de validez interdisciplinar, así como los resultados de un estudio etnográfico sobre la actividad textil en los Valles Calchaquíes salteños. En la descripción de la actividad textil utilizamos la noción de secuencia operativa, en la que intervienen actores, materias primas, tecnologías, procesos y comunidades de práctica. El estudio se fundamentó en tres hipótesis: 1) la actividad textil coexiste con otras actividades de subsistencia, que se desarrollan entre diversos actores y unidades domésticas locales; 2) las relaciones personales en la actividad cotidiana se imbrican a diferentes niveles – micro, meso y macro- de la estructura y la organización social; y 3) la obtención de recursos y las actividades de las unidades domésticas se corresponden espacialmente con ambientes ecológicos –“del alto” y “del bajo”- que son complementarios regionalmente. Finalmente, sostenemos que la teoría y la metodología del análisis de redes sociales constituyen herramientas para la investigación etnográfica, en tanto estimulan la generación de hipótesis y propician acomodamientos en los diseños de investigación tendientes a la modelización estructural de problemas sociales actuales y del pasado. De esta manera, se abre un campo heurísticamente fructífero que tiende puentes entre la investigación etnográfica y arqueológica. O objetivo deste trabalho é apresentar as contribuições da análise de redes sociais à pesquisa nos domínios da etnografia e arqueologia. Para este fim, apresentamos os pressupostos básicos da pesquisa relacional, enfatizando a geração de modelos de validade interdisciplinar, bem como os resultados de um estudo etnográfico sobre a atividade têxtil nos Vales Calchaquíes de Salta. Na descrição da atividade têxtil utilizamos a noção de uma seqüência operacional, na qual atores, matérias-primas, tecnologias, processos e comunidades de prática estão envolvidos. O estudo foi baseado em três hipóteses: 1) a atividade têxtil coexiste com outras atividades de subsistência, que são desenvolvidas entre diversos atores e unidades domésticas locais; 2) as relações pessoais na atividade cotidiana se entrelaçam em diferentes níveis - micro, meso e macro - de estrutura e organização social; e 3) a obtenção de recursos e as atividades das unidades domésticas correspondem espacialmente a ambientes ecológicos - "del alto" e "del bajo" - que são regionalmente complementares. Finalmente, argumentamos que a teoria e metodologia de análise de redes sociais são ferramentas para a pesquisa etnográfica, na medida em que estimulam a geração de hipóteses e permitem acomodações em projetos de pesquisa que visam a modelagem estrutural de problemas sociais passados e atuais. Desta forma, elas abrem um campo heurístico frutífero que constrói pontes entre a pesquisa etnográfica e arqueológica. Centro de Estudios Históricos.
