ABSTRACT

This chapter analyzes how to develop a truly nuanced anthropological observation and record containing a whole set of epistemological questions about humans. While accepting the concept of classical ethnography, Chinese anthropology offers other possibilities for ethnographic writing. This approach is based on detailed micro-research in China and gradually unfolds and becomes a conscious consciousness, all of which are gradually explored and unfolded, as there is no clear object waiting for us to conduct a focused description when more and more temporal clues attract us to constantly trace. This is the core of a new kind of clue ethnography.
