Increasing numbers of researchers are working in regions
experiencing high levels of conflict or crisis, or among
populations that have fled violent conflict to become refugees or
internally displaced persons. Understanding these conflicts and
their aftermath should be shaped not only by the victors and their
elite companions but also by the local people whose daily lives
become intertwined with the conflict - this 'view from below' is
explored in this volume. Conducting rigorous research in these
contexts presents a range of ethical, methodological, logistical
and security challenges not usually confronted in non-conflict
field contexts. This volume compiles lessons learned by experienced
field researchers, many of whom have faced demanding situations
characterized by violence, distrust and social fragmentation. The
authors offer options for studying the situations of people
affected by conflict and, by focusing on ethical and security
issues, seek ways to safeguard the interests and integrity of the
research 'subjects' and of the researchers and their teams.
