The Entanglements of Ethnographic Fieldwork in a Violent World, Hardback Book

The Entanglements of Ethnographic Fieldwork in a Violent World Hardback

Edited by Nerina Weiss, Erella Grassiani, Linda Green

Part of the Routledge Studies in Fieldwork and Ethnographic Research series

Hardback

Description

This book focuses on the emotional hazards of conducting fieldwork about or within contexts of violence and provides a forum for field-based researchers to tell their stories.

Increasingly novice and seasoned ethnographers alike, whether by choice or chance, are working in situations where multidimensional forms of violence, conflict and war are facets of everyday life.

The volume engages with the methodological and ethical issues involved and features a range of expressive writings that reveal personal consequences and dilemmas.

The contributors use their emotions, their scars, outrage and sadness alongside their hopes and resilience to give voice to that which is often silenced, to make visible the entanglements of fieldwork and its lingering vulnerabilities.

The book brings to the fore the lived experiences of researchers and their interlocutors alike with the hope of fostering communities of care.

It will be valuable reading for anthropologists and those from other disciplines who are embarking on ethnographic fieldwork and conducting qualitative empirical research.
