Questions to Consider:
- Which type of research method from the book chapter is used by Librett (2008)? Is this the most beneficial method to use given the research topic? Why or why not?
- What is meant by the term “edgework”? How are bikers “edgeworkers”?
Lugosi (2006) suggests that examining the contextual nature of fieldwork helps ethnographers and their potential critics to understand why concealment is a necessary and often inevitable part of research. This article thus seeks to provide an alternative point of reference that informs debates surrounding the emergence of concealment and covertness in research.
Questions to Consider:
- Does this article emphasize Overt or Covert Research? What does covert research and the use of covert methods have to offer the field? What is covert research and their methods critiqued for?
- Does the author argue the labeling and dismisal of “covert” research as useful or not? Explain.
