The aim of this study is to describe some of the advantages of participant observation in the study of the urban homeless. The specific way in which the homeless subsist has led local politicians to call them “the Clients of Repression”, thus the title of the article. Presently, the original concept of long-term stationary participant observation – as seen, for example, in Malinowski’s pioneering fieldwork – is not so common in the study of contemporary complex societies. Urban anthropologists increasingly focus on shorter iterative research visits among analyzed populations. In this article I will try to define participant observation and summarize the methodological procedures applied by Czech and foreign ethnographers of the homelessness. In addition, I will describe a day of my fieldwork spent in active participation in the common activities of “the Clients of Repression”, and I will accentuate some specific findings obtained during this day. Finally, I will emphasize some of th...

A profissionalização da arqueologia portuguesa levou à necessidade de caracterização do sector. Seguindo estudos realizados noutros países, pretende-se: analisar comportamentos sexistas e de assédio/abuso sexual em Arqueologia; compreender as consequências destas práticas a nível pessoal/profissional. Em 2021 o Sindicato dos Trabalhadores de Arqueologia, elaborou um inquérito de modo a aferir práticas de sexismo/assédio/abuso sexual em ambiente profissional/académico na arqueologia portuguesa. Os resultados são preocupantes, denotando falta de consciencialização sobre o tema, ausência de códigos de conduta e ineficácia dos canais de denúncia. As vítimas têm dificuldade em prosseguir no trabalho em Arqueologia, vendo afetadas a sua saúde/vida pessoal. Pretendeu-se discutir as relações de poder baseadas no género e incentivar a criação de protocolos de prevenção, fundamentais para uma Arqueologia segura, justa e igualitária. Palavras-chave: Arqueologia Profissional; Sexismo; Assédio e Abuso Sexual; Direitos Laborais; Códigos de conduta. “I habitually ignored”: sexism, harassment, and sexual abuse in Archeology. As Portuguese archaeology became more professional, the sector needed to be characterized. Based on international studies, the aim is to examine sexist behavior and incidents of sexual harassment/abuse within Archaeology and assess their impact on both personal/professional levels. A 2021 survey by the Sindicato dos Trabalhadores de Arqueologia assessed incidents of sexism/harassment/ sexual abuse in Portuguese archaeology. The results are concerning, indicating a lack of knowledge about the topic, the absence of ethical guidelines, and ineffective methods for reporting. Victims often struggle to pursue a career in archaeology due to the impact it can have on their health and personal life. The discussion aimed to tackle gender-based power dynamics and establish prevention protocols for a fair and safe field of archaeology.
