This work has been conceived as a guide to the first exercises in anthropology research, addressing aspects such as: a) problematization and planning of research (projection); b) development of research (performance); and c) presentation and discussion of results (reporting). Methods and techniques of anthropological inquiry (ethnography, collaborative research, interviews, workshops), classic and contemporary theoretical approaches, use of bibliographic databases, citation styles, etc. are also studied. In following this guide, including examples and exercises, the student or reader interested in conducting anthropological research will have the basic tools and knowledge to state and solve a research problem and present the results of such process as a report or article.
