How does being a parent in the field influence a researcher's
positionality and the production of ethnographic knowledge? Based on
regionally and thematically diverse cases, this collection explores
methodological, theoretical, and ethical dimensions of accompanied
fieldwork. The authors show how multiple familial relations and the
presence of their children, partners, or other family members impact the
immersion into the field and the construction of its boundaries. Female
and male authors from various career stages exemplify different research
conditions, financial constraints, and family-career challenges that are
decisive for academic success.
