Princip vstřícnosti v antropologickém výzkumu

This paper aims to implement key concepts (naturalized epistemology, principle of charity), which have been developed as a part of the philosophy of language (D. Davidson, W. V. O. Quine), into the methodology of cultural anthropology based on interpretative approach research regarding social actors / examining body. The first part will be focused on explanation of thought experiments radical interpretation in a frame of analytic philosophy of language discussion. The purpose of a second part will be to deal with transfer of previously discussed knowledge into the methodology of cultural anthropology. Using the examples from ethnographical research, the violation of the principle of charity will be demonstrated as well as negative consequences of flawed methodological approach in interpretation of verbal and conative behavior of social actors.
