How can you do ethnographic field research in a safe way for you and the people you work with?

In this nuanced, candid book, researchers from across the globe discuss core challenges faced by ethnographers, reflecting on research from preparation to dissemination and how identity interacts with the realities of doing fieldwork.

Building on the work of the editors' The New Ethnographer Project, which has been seeking to change the way ethnographic methods are approached and taught since 2018, the book:

Promotes an inclusive approach that invites you to learn from the challenges faced by a diverse range of scholars. Addresses underexplored issues including emotional and physical safety in the face of ableism, homophobia and racism. Challenges assumptions of what it means to produce knowledge by conducting fieldwork.

Whether you're an undergraduate student or an experienced researcher, this book will help you do fieldwork that is safer, healthier and more ethical.

Reviews for Inclusive Ethnography: Making Fieldwork Safer, Healthier and More Ethical

Inclusive Ethnography offers a broad range of practical and provocative reflections on contemporary ethnography. The book encourages students and established ethnographers to consider the many challenges ethnographic research can entail, to learn from the accounts it presents, and to develop responsive and ethical approaches in their own practices. It is an essential resource -- Dr Christopher Bunn A strength of ethnographic method is its affordance for capturing social phenomena in a human way; in a way that recording devices alone simply cannot. Inclusive Ethnography brings this humanity into focus, celebrating diversity and difference by demonstrating the human contingencies through which field relations and data representation are handled. Each chapter imparts practical knowledge through powerful personal accounts, offering a timely guide for (and from) traditionally overlooked researchers and research. -- Dr Jonathan Ablitt Inclusive Ethnography shares lessons learnt from the ethnographic field from a diverse range of contributors. It offers a refreshingly honest, yet academically rigorous, account of methodological, ethical and substantive issues encountered in conducing ethnographic work. Great for beginners and experts alike! -- Anna Galazka
