More Details

Summary:

In this case study I explore the context-specific ethical challenges related to researching in transitional settings. I employ the term contextual ethics, which I define as the additional ethical issues that need to be considered when researching in certain contexts. These include the need for the researcher to familiarize themselves with the geographical and political context of the research setting, restricting the scope of participants, engaging in appropriate participant sampling and recruitment strategies, evaluating the use of recording equipment and the use of video and photographic data, and employing appropriate anonymization strategies. Although the focus of this case study is postconflict Northern Ireland, I posit that the ethical insights are pertinent to researchers planning postgraduate research in other postconflict settings in addition to those undertaking research related to wider transitional social settings and organizational settings.
