title: The repatriation of anthropology: Some observations on Endo-ethnography.
abstract: For a few decades, anthropologists have increasingly turned to the study of their own society and culture. This article addresses the problems and the relative advantages and disadvantages of endogenous ethnography. It devotes special attention to the experiences of medical anthropologists who have conducted fieldwork at home. It is concluded that anthropology at home has no special epistemological position compared with anthropological research abroad, though there may be differences at the practical level of fieldwork and publishing.
