Chimpanzés, jaguars et ventriloquisme ethnographique
Fondé sur des recherches ethnographiques dans l'un des rares sanctuaires pour primates installé en Europe, cet article aborde la question des « perspectives animales » sous l'angle du tournant « ontologique » en anthropologie pour interroger les limites des approches actuelles de l'anthropologie « au-delà de l'humain ». L'article commence par une exploration de la façon dont les gardiens du sanctuaire conceptualisent les « points de vue » des chi…
Rethinking Human–Nonhuman Primate Contact and Pathogenic Disease Spillover
Habituating field scientists
This article explores the sensory dimensions of scientific field research in the only region in the world where free-ranging bonobos ( Pan paniscus) can be studied in their natural environment; the equatorial rainforest of the Democratic Republic of Congo. If, as sensory anthropologists have argued, the senses are developed, grown and honed in a given cultural and environmental milieu, how is it that field scientists come to dwell among familiari…

Taking seriously apparent contradictions in keepers' reflections on the care of chimpanzees, the concept of 'doublethink' is introduced as a heuristic in order to ap…
