Danger in the Field - Ethics and Risk in Social Research (Hardcover)

This book is an innovative and lively analysis of the experience of different forms of danger in various qualitative research settings. Made up of researchers' reflexive accounts of their own encounters with 'danger' whilst carrying out research, this book expands the common sense use of the term to encompass not just physical danger, but emotional, ethical and professional danger too. From the physical danger of researching the night club 'bouncer' scene to the ethical dangers of participant observation in an old people's home, these contributions provide researchers and students with thought-provoking insights into the potential pitfalls of research.
