- The camera tends to lie and the audience tends to believe”. Some implications of the use of film in ethnographic research: the case of the European research project TRESEGYPublication . Santos, Paula Mota; Alzetta, RobertoThis paper discuss issues related to the use of film in social science research. A documentary made within TRESEGY, a three year EU-funded research project, is the basis of this paper. TRESEGY focused on the experiences of inclusion and exclusion in the public sphere among second generation migrated European teenagers. The final documentary was made by two film crews from two different universities that divided among themselves nine European cities where filming took place. Issues of the negotiation of meaning involved in the different stages of film-making, between a) the researchers consortium and the filmmakers b) the youths filmed and the filmmakers/researchers from each terrain are discussed.

- Through the looking glass: historical production, photographic representation and the sense of place in Porto's old cityPublication . Santos, Paula MotaO artigo aqui apresentado é parte de uma investigação mais abrangente que, partindo de uma antropologia de inspiração fenomenológica, visava identificar e analisar as diferentes conceptualizações que diferentes grupos sociais têm da parte antiga da cidade do Porto e ver como esta área urbana joga um papel na construção de um sentido de pertença ao Porto, ele próprio. Apresenta-se aqui a construção desse sentido do lugar como objectificada pela prática fotográfica e respectivos sistemas representacionais de dois universos específicos: os serviços de turismo da Câmara Municipal e os habitantes do Porto antigo. The paper presented here is part of a wider research project that, departing from a phenomenological informed anthropology, aimed at identifying the different constructs that different social groups have of Porto’s old part, and to see how this urban area plays a role in the construction of a sense of belongingness to Porto. The referred to analysis of a construction of a sense of place is presented in this paper through the practice of photography and respective representational systems of two groups: the city council tourism services and inhabitants of old Porto.
