Description

Product Description This edited volume investigates the ethical and emotional challenges of conducting fieldwork in Africa. It reflects on difficulties researchers face such as objectivity, access, gender issues and information risks. Focusing across a wide range of states and themes, the project makes an original contribution and builds upon existing strengths and insights in various disciplines by presenting research-practical insights from contemporary cases of fieldwork. As such, the book is an accessible and useful guide for students and scholars alike. Review “I heartily welcome the publication of this volume. Having attended the workshop where these researchers shared their stories and were encouraged to examine their own experiences for the sake of researchers that would follow, I can attest to the honest grappling that is behind the various chapters. I am impressed with the development of the ideas, and believe this to be an important contribution that will enhance research in many realms, in Africa and beyond.” (Martha Bridgma, Editor, The South African Journal of International Affairs) From the Back Cover This edited volume investigates the ethical and emotional challenges of conducting fieldwork in Africa.
