PAPER PRESENTERS NAGAR, Deeksha, Folklorist/Independent Researcher, Amrit Pratibha, 5/530 Vikas Nagar, Lucknow-226022, UP, India, E-mail: Creativity, Performance and Culture Change, Understanding Children’s World through Wedding of the Doll Role-Play This paper will highlight the importance and complexity of doing research on children’s role-play by examining a popular Indian children’s game called the Wedding of the Doll. This theme offers a potent framework for analyzing the social, cultural, and economic relationships of children as articulated in their real life and make-believe worlds. It also reveals an active inter-generational dialogue because children must consult and seek assistance from adults to teach about rituals and traditions to accurately perform the wedding of their dolls. Decades ago, children, especially girls learned about all the complex caste-based rituals and specific tasks connected with the weddings by planning and carrying out the wedding of their dolls. My presentation will show how the Wedding of the Doll game has changed over time. My conclusions will illustrate some new theoretical and methodological approaches to the study of children’s play and open new vistas to understand children’s worldviews.

CP. 1900, BUENOS AIRES, National University of La Plata, Argentina, E-mail: / Play and Child Development: Some Considerations from an Ethnographic Research in Two Rural Argentinean Communities *My conclusion will illuminate notions connected with childhood in non-western society – how a child must be and how should they conform to their gender-roles to develop into adults. It will illustrate ways in which children learn through play and by participating in every-day life. The examination of children’s everyday life will demonstrate that children need experiences, activities and knowledge that provides them with opportunities to become part of the community. **We present the preliminary results of an ongoing ethnographic research on child rearing practices and child development among two rural Argentinean populations: an indigenous population (Mbya Guarani) located in Misiones Province (northeast rainforest) and a Creole population (Molinos) located in the highlands and semiarid areas in the northwest (Salta Province). From a methodological point of view we use different observation techniques and photographs and videotapes as complementary recording devices. We also interview caregivers about local authorities related to child rearing, growth and development. We are working on a model for observation and recording information about child rearing practices at the domestic level that includes a section on play and games. The used method facilitates the recognition of ecological factors characterizing children's play and also the comparison of both communities. In relation to the theme of this panel we will try to point out how this research can contribute to an interdisciplinary study of play and to some sub-disciplines in anthropology and ethnology. PANEL-06(A): ETHNOGRAPHY WITH CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS ACROSS STUDIES AND CONTEXTS 26 th November, 2012 Time: 14.00-16.30hrs Hall No.: PANEL ORGANIZER
DANTAS-WHITNEY, Maria, Western Oregon University, USA, E-mail: PANEL ABSTRACT Our panel brings together ethnographic studies that describe how children and adolescents become involved in social, educational, political and cultural dynamics. These studies are being conducted in our particular contexts: Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, the U.K. and the U.S. We will seek to provide a comparative analysis across studies and contexts, particularly emphasizing the consideration of children and adolescents as individuals in the center of inter-subjective relations between us (adults), and the others (children and adolescents). Notably, the concept of agency will be highlighted, considering both how children propose alternative possibilities for the transformation of their identities and their everyday lives as well as its implications for methodology and the epistemology of ethnography. PAPER PRESENTERS BORGES, Antonádia, University of Brasilia, Brazil, Colina bloco H apto 508, 70904-108, Brasilia, Brasil, E-mail: Born in the Promised Land: Youth and the Politics of Belonging in Brasilia, Brazil The paper is based on a research done in 6 different cities around Brasilia. Since 2008 to a group of around 100 young students attending public schools have been engaged as junior researchers in a project about the specificity of their own identity building and social belonging in the modernist social landscape. The collective research led the group to produce a book and short-films on the local history of each town rejecting the modernist history they are taught in school. The discussion on racial and social exclusion experienced by those living on the outskirts of Brasilia and the workshops on writing, artisanal photography and video techniques gave them tools to produce their own narrative on the experiences young people have in this particular urban Brazilian metropolitan area. Our aim is to discuss how anthropology has a role to play in understanding social dynamics by promoting new forms of knowledge production. CARPENA-MENDEZ, Fina, Oregon State University, USA, 212 Waldo Hall, OSU, Corvallis, OR 97331, U.S.A., E-mail: Children’s Lifeworlds in New Migrant-sending Areas: Sustaining the Everyday in Neoliberal Mexico Drawing on fieldwork with children and youth in Nahua communities in Mexico, recently incorporated into transnational migrant circuits to Philadelphia, this paper explores the methodological and epistemological implications of an ethnographic enquiry into children’s lives in the context of the profound transformations of the social existence in the countryside. First, this paper consist the challenges of employing participatory research techniques with children in Gerontocratic communities broken by power struggles between generations in the context of youth circular migration to the US. Second, the paper challenges current conceptualizations of the children left behind in transnational migration as passive dependents of remittances in transnational care-giving arrangements. This article argues for the crucial role children play in sustaining the everyday in a context where a constellation of neoliberal policies, reshaping the condition of life and promoting transnational migrations, have failed to provide rural communities with alternative or sustainable livelihoods.
