Danger in the Field Risk and Ethics in Social Research eBook

Danger in the Field Risk and Ethics in Social Research eBook
<

The nature of qualitative inquiry means that
researchers constantly have to deal with the
unexpected, and all too often this includes coping
with the presence of danger or risk. Danger in
the Field is an innovative and lively analysis of
the experience of different forms of danger in
various qualitative research settings. Made up of
researchers reflexive accounts of their own
encounters with danger while carrying out
research, this book expands our common sense use
of the term to encompass not just physical danger,
but emotional, ethical and professional danger
too. In addition the authors pay special
attention to the gendered forms of danger implicit
in the research process.

From the physical danger of researching the night
club bouncer scene to the ethical dangers of
participant observation in a home for older people,
these contributions provide researchers and
students with thought provoking insights into the
importance of a well chosen research design.
