In Ethnographic Explorations: Surrender and Resistance, Whitaker
and Atkinson, two experienced ethnographers, explore the
complexities of fieldwork, analysis and writing from new
perspectives. It takes the opportunity to reflect on Ethnography
not just as a methodological perspective, but at a fundamental
level. In general terms, Ethnography is seen not just in terms of a
set of data-collection methods, but as a more profoundly
transformational perspective. The book explores a series of
tensions and differences in the conceptualisation and conduct of
ethnography, among them: Surrender and Catch; Strangeness and
Familiarity; Intimacy and Distance; Romanticism and Modernism. It
emphasises disruptions and interruptions rather than an idealised
model of smoothly untroubled research. The book covers a variety of
theoretical and methodological perspectives, illustrated with
research in many social settings settings. The book is intended for
researchers at postgraduate and postdoctoral levels and at
experienced researchers who want to read a different, sometimes
challenging, take on ethnographic research and its outcomes.
