These notebooks includes more than 300 hand-written pages of ethnographic and qualitative data collected on a daily basis and organized by household/events and by date from November 1998 to November 99 (before I contracted malaria and decided to conclude my fieldwork). At the end of each day, I noted down key facts, insights and possible interpretations. Thus, the notebook includes both “raw data” as well as emerging hypotheses and preliminary analyses. Future researchers should be in a position to extrapolate my perspective as data can be traced back to the specific household or informant that “generated” them. To better understand the context, I recommend consulting my PhD thesis as reference. If these notebooks generate some interest, I will cross-reference their content with my PhD thesis for easier fruition by future researchers.
