Abstract
In the context of previous research work that we have developed on commemorative political manifestations in the public space of Santiago de Chile, this article seeks to offer a photo-ethnographic methodological approach for observing and understanding this phenomenon from the perspective of the forms of appearance in the public space and the struggles for the visibility of the protesters. We assume that both the images and the modes of narration of social phenomena in ethnography are not neutral, but depend on the positions of the researchers, which is why we place ourselves in a perspective of dialogue and closeness to the struggles of the social actors who manifest themselves in these commemorations. In methodological terms, the proposal that we have been developing aims to offer epistemological and procedural guidelines on photo ethnography and the articulation between knowledge and practices of ethnography.
