Book Synopsis

Communities of Practice and Ethnographic Fieldwork offers a new perspective on how ethnography might be learned in real-time through participation in a supportive community of practice.

It draws on the experiences, knowledge, and training of an interdisciplinary group of scholars, who have studied legal topics ethnographically alongside and with the support of fellow ethnographers at varying stages of their careers. Contributors address topics that are of interest to those who teach ethnography as well as to those who are learning this approach. Such topics include ethics, positionality in the field, the combination of personal and professional circumstances, and the process and pain of changing research topics. Each chapter emphasizes the role of mentoring and collective problem-solving through a lab model of fieldwork practice, particularly when carrying out research with subjects and interlocutors who may have undergone trauma.
