    No full text
    Cyberspace has called the epistemic attention of anthropologists in the middle of the 1990’s. This paper aims to characterize and discuss the trajectory put in action by it from this moment onward, focusing on Sherry Turkle work. Our article begins with some indications about the way the cyberculture studies were structured. Following, we stress the methodological bias by which the field was approached by anthropology. Finally, we offer a critical reflection about the merits and limitations of all this stage of research. Besides the pioneer article of Arturo Escobar and the focus on Sherry Turkle trajectory, we make some remarks about the contributions originated from David Haken and Christine Hine. Key words: cyberculture, virtual ethnography, Sherry Turkle.O ciberespaço chamou a atenção da antropologia como campo de investigação ainda em meados dos anos 1990. O estudo aqui apresentado se propõe a caracterizar e refletir sobre o percurso que se encetou a partir deste momento, centrando sua análise na obra de Sherry Turkle. O artigo começa com indicações sobre a forma como se configuraram os estudos de cibercultura. O segundo passo assinala a aproximação do campo feita, no período apontado, pela antropologia. O terceiro propõe uma reflexão crítica sobre os méritos e limites de todo esse estágio da investigação, distinguindo entre as pesquisas etnográficas propriamente ditas e as reflexões epistemológicas a que elas deram origem entre os praticantes do ofício. Além do artigo pioneiro de Arturo Escobar e do foco na obra de Sherry Turkle, comenta-se no trabalho reflexões como as de David Hakken e Christine Hine. Palavras-chave: cibercultura, etnografia virtual, Sherry Turkle
