Abstract

David MacDougall is arguably the most prominent figure in the field of visual anthropology today. He is a well-known filmmaker, anthropologist and writer that contributed to the development of visual anthropology, regarded not only as a subdomain of anthropology, but as a field of study in itself, that does not depend anymore on the traditional scientific principle of anthropological inquiry for its validity.
