Résumé
Dans les années 1990, j’éprouvais de l’empathie pour le Sultan d’Adamaoua. J’éprouve aussi de l’empathie pour l’un des industriels les plus riches et les plus influents au Cameroun aujourd’hui; des émotions qu’il est difficile d’exprimer en Norvège aujourd’hui. Les idées sur l’Afrique, la pauvreté, la corruption, etc. rendent de tels sentiments politiquement incorrects. Ma recherche anthropologique est censée conduire à des conséquences positives pour les personnes avec qui je travaille. Qu’elles soient de « petites » ou de « grandes » gens. C’est ce qu’on appelle la recherche appliquée. Mon expérience de recherche m’a fait tirer les conclusions suivantes: la recherche devrait contribuer à donner aux gens de nouvelles voix dans de nouveaux domaines; les rendre visibles dans de nouvelles sphères sociales. Je souhaite par exemple, que mes recherches puissent pousser les autorités à écouter et se soucier des gens pauvres ou non instruites, et que leurs décisions puissent les atteindre, les rendre autonomes. Souvent aussi, on pense que l’autonomisation ne concerne que les personnes sans pouvoir. Puisque j’ai longtemps travaillé avec des gens ayant un grand pouvoir, mes recherches doivent permettre à leurs voix de se fortifier et les rendre visibles sur les nouvelles arènes sociales qui sont sous la pression de leur propre comportement et leur esprit d’entreprise, mais qu’eux-mêmes ne voient pas. Quels critères utilisons-nous lorsque nous décidons si notre recherche devrait renforcer les gens au pouvoir? Il est important d’inclure les « petits », ainsi que les « grands » dans notre recherche appliquée. Sinon, la démocratie ne peut pas être promue.
