Abstract
In the context of an academic work, the researcher-observator-collector we have been, can
decide what's important for someone else unilaterally : "Each theory selects among the
different aspects of a phenomenon that the theory regards as pertinent in its framework of
reference." (...) "The theory as the representations is a riddle and a press. That defines the type
and the quantity of informations which we can get from a phenomenon." (Canter Kohn 1998 :
206). And the same schemes of the perception are inserted into the writing of some "in situ -
observations". According to Ruth Canter Kohn, "studying the results of the observation gives
access to the process of their making." (Canter Kohn 1998 : 207). That's the tool of our
demonstration too.
