Traditional methodological approaches may need to be adapted, and new methods may be called for. In addition, such research carries ethical challenges about representation of informants and information and possible use of the research for harmful ends. This book, drawing on research conducted throughout Africa in conflict zones and other insecure environments, considers the everyday dilemmas researchers face. It provides essential contributions to ongoing challenging debates about the use of alternative and mixed methods in social science research. 410 0$aAfrican-Europe Group for Interdisciplinary Studies (Series) ;$vv. 6. 606 $aViolence$xResearch$zAfrica 606 $aSocial conflict$xResearch$zAfrica 606 $aResearch$xMoral and ethical aspects$zAfrica 615 0$aViolence$xResearch 615 0$aSocial conflict$xResearch 615 0$aResearch$xMoral and ethical aspects 676 $a303.6096 701 $aCramer$b Christopher$cDr.$0628843 701 $aHammond$b Laura$f1967-$01475839 701 $aPottier$b Johan$0688446 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789566603321 996 $aResearching violence in Africa$93690171 997 $aUNINA
