|Title=On Goffman: Ethnography and the Ethics of Care
|Is About=This blog deals with the ethics in ethnography, using the factual case of Goffman's research. Alice Goffman's ethnographic research with Black men in low-income neighbourhoods has been the focus of controversy since its publication. Michaela Benson discusses this case.
|Important Because=Safeguards are usually thought of an ethics issue that mainly concerns the research participants rather than the researchers themselves. In this case, this notion is challenged and both the researcher and the researched are susceptible to safeguarding issues. Also, this is a good case for discussions on research methods courses on ethnography or with ethnographic elements.
|Important For=Academic institutions; Supervisors; PhD Students; Early career researchers
