When They Read What We Write: The Politics of Ethnography

By Caroline B. Brettell

Book Overview

Arising from discussions about ethics and responsibility in anthropological fieldwork, these essays explore what happens when people who are the subjects of research, read or hear about what has been written about them. Problems arise from biased media reports, and trust can be lost.
