abstract = {Using of the Vilém Flusser “Apparatus” and “Functionary” Concept in the Analysis of Ethnographic Questionnaires

	Author analyzes ethnographic questionnaires, which are important research tools because their use affects type of collected data as well as way of constructing anthropological knowledge. Author shows epistemological base of anthropological methodology of fieldwork. Using for this media studies perspective. Author makes most of Vilém Flusser media theory, mainly using the terms “apparatus” and “functionary”. Author applies this terms to the questionnaire, and the researcher. This allows to reveal hidden methodological assumptions and deconstruction of ideology affecting the organization and understanding of fieldwork by anthropologists. This perspective also allows to see elements of this discourse, that is: (1) the process of improvement of research tools, as a kind of moral obligation; (2) shifting the focus from the content of data collected on the fact of collecting them; (3) transparency of anthropological practices binding with partial researchers non-reflexivity; (4) the need to exercise control over researchers and train them in self-control.
