An Empirical Approach to Studying Human Existence
This chapter proposes a way to empirically study individual existence. It argues that individual existence is best researched in three steps. First, the researcher should provide a rough description of the diverse contexts an individual lives in. Second, she or he needs to explore the structures of the individual's daily life. Third, the anthropologist should abstract the more permanent features of an individual from the latter's behaviour in dai…
Some Historical Factors in the Development of Field Cultivation Practices in Two Villages in South Central Niger
In this article, I describe field cultivation work in two villages in South Central Niger. Furthermore, I ponder on the historical factors that have shaped these working practices in this area.

At the same time, this conceptualisation allows us to establish a continuum of decision-maki…
How to Explain Access to the Field. Lessons from Fieldwork among the Yedina (or Buduma)of Lake Chad

They often explain this identity in relation to the historical external relations of the society being investigated. In this article, I will also attempt to portray the identity that the Yedina assigned to me during my field research, and wh…
