In the first episode of the “Common Concern” podcast, Siqi Tu and Sohail Jagat speak with Xiang Biao, co-director of the Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology. Looking back on his experiences and academic career in China and the United Kingdom, he traces the origins of his “Common Concern” approach.
The “Common Concerns” approach is an exercise in which researchers reflect together with their interlocutors. It is therefore not merely a research task carried out one-sidedly by the researchers. It is an analytical strategy designed to facilitate a type of research in which researchers can ultimately return to their conversation partners to report what they have discovered, what they think, what concepts emerge from this, or what further questions arise.
