Resumen
This paper is an exploration of the space between words and practice.1 We will deal with the relation between the analytic language used by the anthropologists and the social practice and experience of the people they study. An ethnography is both a process and a product. As a process, it involves everyday inter- actions, comprehensive experiences and local knowledge. As a product, its result is a written text intended to encourage a scien- tific and universalistic understanding. We will focus on the contrast between these two diverging logics, which are inherent in the anthropological task. In particular, we will explore the conceptual vacuum that appears as the researcher translates embodied practices into analytic categories.
