Chroniques du terrain - Tales From the Field - Feldforschungsgeschichten

A website of methodological reflections about critical ethnographic sociolinguistic research based on researchers’ experiences. It is not a how-to guide, many of which already exist, but a collection of personal tales about specific problems that raise questions for the ethnographer. These problems are seen as opportunities to make sense of, and lead toward a better comprehension of, the phenomena, institutions and actors that we study. These tales do not give us THE answer, they primarily seek to describe and explain the processes through which the researcher finds elements of response.
