Ju/’hoansi - Opis:
- In her article the author analyses The Hunters (1957), a film directed by anthropologist and documentary filmmaker John Marshall, approaching it as an example of an archival object that extends the knowledge and experience of the Anthropocene. She discusses the potential of a documentary and anthropological film for informing about changes related to the ecological crisis. Using the story of the Bushmen from Marshall’s film, the author presents the previously omitted or marginalised ideas that shed new light on the crisis in the Ju/’hoansi community in the face of ongoing globalisation and development of Western civilisation. Inspired by the concept of ‘alternative natures’ proposed by Phil Macnaghten and John Urry, she identifies and interprets three types of nature that reflect the Western approach to the world in The Hunters, thus exposing the ethnographic myth of objective research. She argues that the Anthropocene is not only an epoch of progressing climate changes and pollution of ecosystems but also of profound interference with the lifestyles of distant cultures affected by the consequences of colonialism and the activities of anthropologists, ethnographers, and film crews.
