This article offers a critical methodological reflection on how we undertook covert digital ethnographic research on Spanish young people and their use of online dating apps with a focus on the potential risk attached to using them. We were interested in showing how we approached the fieldwork, how we developed different research identities and how those identities were able to draw out raw data which reflected the risk attached to the online dating apps. While the project as a whole used a mixed-methods framework which also encompassed open-ended interviews and surveys, we provide a series of critical reflections attuned to digital ethnography. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to show how the methodological techniques cultivated ‘identities’ for our ethnographer that became effective in teasing out attitudes to risk and sexual exploration. We also hope that the paper can facilitate similar studies in the future, thus paving the way for other researchers. For this reason, we highlight the problems we encountered during the fieldwork and discuss the ethical issues related to this specific field.

桑迪·麦克劳德和格雷姆·麦克拉彻。他们的“重新融入、好客与敌意:刑事司法中的歌曲创作与歌曲分享”源自“遥远的声音”计划，这是一项持续进行的跨学科合作行动研究计划，旨在挑战对罪犯康复与重新融入社会的理解和方法。该项目包括合作歌曲创作和歌曲共享。本文特别讨论了敌意通常是如何破坏性的，以及为什么创造和维持好客的环境是至关重要的，即使具有挑战性。该论文还强调了作者最初的方法方法，该方法涉及合作参与者观察，允许不同位置的参与者之间的“镜像”。接下来，Tim Turner运用Bryman(2004)的迪斯尼化框架，对伊比沙岛派对空间中的吸毒者和毒贩进行人种学研究。他认为(季节工)从事的是一种深度形式的表演性劳动。他的论文题为《只是磕药:伊比沙岛英国毒贩的人种志》，提供了方法论上的反思，并具体讨论了在“有限的游戏空间”进行田野调查时遇到的挑战。Ellen Van Damme的文章《流亡、回归、记录:通过参与式电影制作探索“后冲突”危地马拉的历史叙事和社区抵抗》将我们带到了一个不同的环境，并讨论了她的民族志

Recent annual estimates suggest that in the United States, approximately 57,000 young people are placed by their parents into some type of residential treatment program. Parent – pay programs are exempt from federal safety standards and some states provide little or no regulatory oversight. Federal investigations revealed a nationwide pattern of institutional abuse across multiple facilities, and some professionals have noted ‘cruel and dangerous uses of thought reform techniques’ within such programs (U.S. House of Representatives 2007, 76). This article summarizes qualitative research based on interviews with 30 adults who lived for an average of 20 months within a ‘highly totalistic’ youth program. The concept of totalistic treatment was operationalized and measured with seven key identifiers found in the literature. Twenty – five different programs of four general types were represented: therapeutic boarding schools, residential treatment centers, wilderness/outdoor programs, and intensive outpatient programs. To organize qualitative findings, three themes explaining the experiences, immediate effects, and long – term impacts of treatment help to reveal implicit meanings woven throughout the interviews. By understanding a wider range of experiences associated with totalistic programs, efforts to improve quality of care and strategies to prevent harm may be improved. Harm prevention efforts would benefit from the analytical perspectives found in theories of coercive persuasion and thought reform.

Distant Voices is an ongoing, interdisciplinary collaborative action research project, drawing on criminology, community development, politics, practice-led research and songwriting to explore crime, punishment and reintegration through creative conversations that aim to challenge and unsettle understandings of and approaches to rehabilitation and reintegration. In this paper, we discuss some of the thinking behind the project and we reflect on our experiences to date as a community of enquiry. Specifically, we explore the extent to which certain practices of hospitality that we have experienced in processes of collaborative songwriting and song-sharing might mediate and resist the ‘hostile environment’ that faces people leaving prison in many contemporary societies. Drawing on our experience, we argue that hospitality is often disruptive; that creating and sustaining hospitable environments is extremely challenging; and that to do so requires careful thought and planning, including in relation to problems created by the power dynamics intrinsic to criminal justice. The paper includes links to and discussion of one song written in the project – ‘An Open Door’ -- which engages with and illustrates these themes.

Following previous experiences of violence and forced displacement, ‘the returnees’ from the Guatemalan campesino community ‘Copal AA la Esperanza’ are now defending their territory against the construction of a hydroelectric dam. The returnees unexpectedly mobilized me as a Belgian historian to ‘make’ their ‘shared history’ and produce a documentary about their past and present struggle. The aim of this article is to reflect on how and why I developed a participatory, filmmaking-based methodology to tackle this challenge. I focus on filmmaking, participation and knowledge production to demonstrate the epistemological and ethical benefits of a dialogue between disciplines and methodologies as much as between academic and community practices and concepts. As such, I exemplify my visual participatory approach through its engagement with post-colonial histories and the co-creation of shared knowledge at the intersection of community and research interests. Moreover, I demonstrate how filmmaking can be developed as a grounded, visual, and narrative approach connecting media activism with ‘performative ethnography’. Combining insights from participatory action research (PAR) with Johannes Fabian’s notion of ‘performance’, I argue for ‘nonextractivist methodologies’; ‘knowing with’ instead of ‘knowing-about’. From being a side project and a matter of research ethics, participatory filmmaking turned for me into an investigative tool to explore the collective production and mobilization of historical narratives. I argue that participatory research should not be limited to communities participating in research projects; researchers can equally participate in community projects without this obstructing scientific research. In sum, participatory visual methods challenge us to reconsider the role of academics in (post-conflict) settings.
在经历了先前的暴力和被迫流离失所之后，来自危地马拉农民社区“Copal AA la Esperanza”的“回返者”现在正在捍卫他们的领土，反对建造一座水电站。作为一名比利时历史学家，海归们出乎意料地动员了我去“创造”他们“共同的历史”，并制作了一部关于他们过去和现在挣扎的纪录片。本文的目的是反思我如何以及为什么开发了一种参与式的、基于电影制作的方法来应对这一挑战。我专注于电影制作，参与和知识生产，以展示学科和方法之间以及学术和社区实践和概念之间对话的认识论和伦理利益。因此，我通过与后殖民历史的接触以及在社区和研究兴趣的交叉点共同创造共享知识来例证我的视觉参与式方法。此外，我还展示了如何将电影制作发展为一种接地气的、视觉的和叙事的方法，将媒体行动主义与“表演民族志”联系起来。结合参与性行动研究(PAR)的见解和Johannes Fabian的“绩效”概念，我主张“非提取主义方法论”;' know with '而不是' know -about '。对我来说，参与式电影制作从一个副业和研究伦理问题，变成了一种探索历史叙事的集体生产和动员的调查工具。我认为参与式研究不应局限于参与研究项目的社区;研究人员可以平等地参与社区项目，而不会妨碍科学研究。总之，参与式视觉方法要求我们重新考虑学者在(冲突后)环境中的角色。

This paper discusses the tension between ethics in theory and ethics in practice, along the continuum of overt and covert field research. I argue that complete overt research is not only unfeasible, but can even be dangerous or harmful to the people we research and the researcher. Within this discussion it can be stated that the formal standardized requirements of the ethics committees actually undermine our ability to act ethically. For this reason, I argue that there is a need to focus on a virtues based approach and reflective stance regarding ethics in the field. I use the case of Honduras, where I conducted field research on the role of women and gangs, to discuss this argument. High levels of insecurity in Honduras create a context of fear which prescribes certain rules of engagement with the wider political economy of violence, and specifically on community interactions with gangs (Hume 2009a; Wilding 2012). My research shows that there is a silent agreement among the people living in neighborhoods with gang presence not to engage in gang-related discussions. Local organizations also prescribe a strict code of conduct in the field, which prohibits the use of crime, violence and other related concepts. This raises key practical and ethical questions for researchers, not least – how do we research that which is silenced? The aim of the paper is to critically discuss the relation between university ethics processes – ethics ‘in theory’ – and street ethics or ethics ‘in practice’, when conducting (participatory) observation in urban neighborhoods and prisons in Honduras.
