Summary/Abstract: The text describes a consideration of activist anthropology, which the author treats as an extension of participant observation. It stems from and builds upon the methodological eclecticism of an-thropology/ethnology. For the author, activist anthropology is the closest to the original premise of participant observation because in its view the researcher’s participation is possibly closest to that of the research partners. The author present the theoretical foundations on which it is based and the circumstances of his research-activist practice from which the author’s interpretation of it was devel-oped. Its features that reinforce the need to distinguish the term of activist anthropology as a specific practice of participatory observation and anthropology itself are also showcased in the article.
