Creative and diverse approaches to ethnographic knowledge
production and writing Ethnographic research has long been
cloaked in mystery around what fieldwork is really like for
researchers, how they collect data, and how it is analyzed within
the social sciences. Naked Fieldnotes, a unique compendium of
actual fieldnotes from contemporary ethnographic researchers from
various modalities and research traditions, unpacks how this
research works, its challenges and its possibilities. The
volume pairs fieldnotes based on observations, interviews,
drawings, photographs, soundscapes, and other contemporary modes of
recording research encounters with short, reflective essays,
offering rich examples of how fieldnotes are composed and shaped by
research experiences. These essays unlock the experience of
conducting qualitative research in the social sciences, providing
clear examples of the benefits and difficulties of ethnographic
research and how it differs from other forms of writing such as
reporting and travelogue. By granting access to these personal
archives, Naked Fieldnotes unsettles taboos about the privacy of
ethnographic writing and gives scholars a diverse, multimodal
approach to conceptualizing and doing ethnographic
fieldwork. Contributors: Courtney Addison, Te
