Shared Anthropology: When Anthropology Meets Critical Public Pedagogy

The article explores the common ground between critical public anthropology and critical public pedagogy as critically conscious, engaged, and animating practices. Through intervention in the public domain, they engage with the contested role of culture in the production, distribution, and regulation of power. These affinities are envisioned within the framework of shared anthropology, which asserts the co-authored nature of knowledge through "sharing-the-anthropology". This approach aims to decolonize and democratize knowledge using multimodal narratives and art as mediums; not merely as "research objects or aims", but as methods to explore "knowing-in-practice" and as strategies for mediating knowledge.
