Mahi Whakaahua: Un enfoque metodológico dirigido por la práctica en la realización de documentales a través de un Paradigma Kaupapa Māori.

Resumen

Es una práctica generalmente aceptada que la redacción de un trabajo de investigación incluya una revisión de la metodología y los métodos diseñados para aumentar las posibilidades de descubrimiento de nuevos conocimientos en el campo de investigación. Sin embargo, en la investigación indígena, la excesiva dependencia de los paradigmas y marcos metodológicos occidentales puede resultar problemática, porque no tienen en cuenta la ontología y la epistemología situadas en las prácticas ancestrales. Al considerar la tesis doctoral maorí: "Tangohia mai te taura" (Toma esta cuerda), este artículo sostiene que un enfoque metodológico para los investigadores indígenas debe ampliarse para abarcar muchas formas de conocimiento, incluyendo Kaupapa Māori como un enfoque de la investigación académica, informado por las narrativas históricas, y el conocimiento basado en repositorios orales de la experiencia que existen en waiata indígenas (canciones), oriori (cantos), karakia (oraciones) y pūrākau (narración de cuentos). Como una extensión de esto, una investigación indígena que busque exhumar experiencias vividas de injusticia también debe enmarcar las experiencias de las comunidades conectadas genealógicamente y relatadas oralmente como valiosos repositorios de conocimiento al diseñar un enfoque metodológico para la filmación.
