The Ethnographic Self: Fieldwork and the Representation of Identity

Featured Bookstore

Book Description: What are the relationships between the self and fieldwork? How do personal, emotional and identity issues impact upon working in the field? This book argues that ethnographers, ethnographers, and others involved in fieldwork, should be aware of how fieldwork research and ethnographic writing construct, reproduce and implicate selves, relationships and personal identities. All too often research methods texts remain relatively silent about the ways in which fieldwork affects us and we affect the field. The book attempts to synthesize accounts of the personal experience of ethnography. In doing so, the author makes sense of the process of fieldwork research as a set of practical, intellectual and emotional accomplishments. The book is thematically arranged, and illustrated with a wide range of empirical material. The first part explores the ethnographic presence in the field, and the implications of this in and beyond fieldwork. The second shifts attention to the (re)presentation of fieldwork experience. Here memoirs and reconstructions of fieldwork achieved through textual practice and autobiographical writing are explored.The result is a book which constantly reminds you that the fieldworker is a human person with ordinary needs and desires that can colour and influence research. It is a book which is full of advice on how to recognize and control these needs and desires in ways which enrich research findings. Fieldwork will never be so daunting or lonely again!
