DIEGUEZ, Ileana. Interpelling the "Academic Horse": For an Affective and Emplaced Practice. Nómadas [online]. 2019, n.50, pp.111-121. ISSN 0121-7550.  https://doi.org/10.30578/nomadas.n50a7.

This text examines the notion of situated knowledge to consider the emplacements that, from non-academic spaces in Mexico, interpellate and affect notions, stories and research strategies. The document addresses its analysis in response to the question of what it means to do research in a context of violent deaths and enforced disappearances in Mexico, which involves processes of exhuming and working with "the formless"and phantasmatic. Finally, it addresses the affective impact that a scenario where life is highly fragilized has upon the research work.

Keywords : Situated Knowledge; Emplaced Practices; Affect; Research; Forced Disappearance; Violence; Mexico.
