The observer observed
This paper engages in a reflection about the use of social media to carry out fieldwork online for contemporary ethnography. The reflection is based on the ethnographer's experiences of discomforts and affects in digital fieldwork, in which she used her own social media accounts to interact with the interlocutors recruited for the project as a means to create reciprocity with them. This article uses these discomforts as generators of ethical, epi…
The social connectedness of digital practices in later life
In the last 10 years there has been an increase in access to information and communication technologies among older people, stimulated by widespread adoption of mobile devices (smartphones and tablets). At the same time, digital inclusion policies and training programmes continue to develop to increase the access to the digital society for this social group. In this context, it is pertinent to revisit a long-standing research question about how o…
Body Representations of Internal Pollution
In this article, we analyze how pregnant and breastfeeding women perceive the inside of their bodies as well as their thoughts regarding the accumulation and elimination of chemical compounds present in food, and how these are then transmitted to the fetus. We explore different social perceptions of risk regarding the circulation of chemical compounds inside the body using qualitative research based on the technique of body mapping, comprised of …

El análisis de los fenómenos alimentarios en una sociedad en un periodo determinado aporta evidencias sobre su funcionamiento y sus relaciones sociales. Este estudio analiza la experiencia del confinamiento provocado por el estado de alarma en España a través de las prácticas y representaciones alimentarias de mujeres adultas, residentes en zonas urbanas de Cataluña. Los análisis muestran la importancia de la alimentación en la cotidianidad del c…
Corporalidades permeables
A partir de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, el desarrollo tecnológico en diversos campos industriales ha provocado que los seres humanos convivan, en mayor o menor medida, con diversos compuestos químicos sintéticos presentes en la atmósfera, el agua, la tierra y los alimentos. Estos compuestos han afectado, afectan y afectarán la salud de diversos grupos de población en distintas formas. El presente trabajo propone una visión del cuerpo contempor…

Corporalidades permeables
From the second half of the twentieth century, due to technological developments in various industrial fields, humans have to coexist, to a greater or lesser extent, with various synthetic chemical compounds that can be found in air, water, land, and food. These compounds have affected, affect, and will continue to affect the health of many population groups in different ways. This Special Issue presents a space to think about the contemporary bo…
Like a sediment that stays in the body
This paper analyzes the ways in which pregnant and breastfeeding women perceive the presence of chemical substances in food products. It also addresses how they reflect on the effects of those substances on their own health and that of the baby and the fetus when they think about processes of accumulation, transmission and elimination of those substances inside their bodies. Our first hypothesis is that women's discourses about the health effects…

Based on a two-year online and offline ethnographic project on social media use in later life, insights are provided into how the practices and meanings of ethnography are being reconstructed and negotiate…
