Interdisciplinary and Cross-Cultural Perspectives

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Increasing globalisation within the social sciences and education sector has necessitated greater reflections on the various dimensions of ethics involved in carrying out research in cross-cultural contexts, within and across national boundaries. Within this context, this volume draws on intensive field work to shed light on the ethical issues the contributors encountered in the course of their empirical studies, exploring such issues as feminist research ethics; cross-cultural reflection and its implications for social change; emotions, conflicts, and dangerous fields, and issues of "safety" and reflective research.
