Description: In this talk, Carolyn will explore the ethical considerations of contact-based research and ask how the identities of researchers and research participants shapes the ethics of research in practice. The question to be answered is: what are the ethics of blending in or of standing out? Drawing on her fieldwork, she argues that our discipline must take positionality seriously in ethical training and practice.
