Algunas reflexiones y propuestas para la integración de la experiencia subjetiva del cuerpo en la investigación de la antropología física

Abstract

A recent field to explore in Physical Anthropology is known as the knowledge of the “own body”. In this topic there are a lot of options none explored like the concepts of experience and self experience. The theoretical frame is in construction due to the previous developments were done in other human disciplines and sciences like sociology, philosophy, psychology, body techniques and others. I propose the study of this matter by the physical anthropologist who can explore his “own body” using practical “body techniques” traditionally used to obtain some skills and awareness of the body, that is difficult to obtain in other way. I consider the acquisition of sensibility to kinesthetic dimension of perception of the body obtained with those body techniques gives to the Physical Anthropologist a new perspective to know some phenomena.
