This book presents a unique collection of stories from a diverse group of researchers who have conducted fieldwork in a range of eclectic, diverse, and intense research settings. Presented as a series of semi-structured interviews, each chapter covers the themes of 'personal risk', 'risk to participants', and 'risk in the production of field-based knowledge'. Together they provide provide a multi-disciplinary perspective on the challenges and solutions that the contributing authors have uncovered both before, during and after their field experiences. From Mexico to the Congo, Afghanistan to Australia, the narratives presented in this book explore the many risks of undertaking fieldwork, including: the risk to research participants, collaborators, staff, friends, families and partners, and the risks linked with the production and dissemination of this kind of knowledge. And finally, they show how our contributors have navigated these risks. It includes interviews with researchers from criminology, development studies, anthropology, social work, sociology, peace studies, gender studies, international relations, history and politics, presenting readers with a unique range of different research contexts, whilst also highlighting themes that transcend disciplinary research experiences. | Navigating Fieldwork In The Social Sciences by Phillip Wadds, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
