ANSA Workshop: Transnational and Multi-Sited Fieldwork in Anthropology
Tuesday Aug 13
3pm aest
Zoom
Fieldwork is considered central to our discipline, however the ways in which we conceptualise and conduct this work has changed considerably - indeed, the very concept of ‘the field’ has been contested (see Gupta & Ferguson 1997 as a notable example). The emergence of multi-sited fieldwork poses particular challenges, and opportunities, to the conduct of anthropological research.
We are joined by Associate Professor Dr Malini Sur (Western Sydney University) and Kolaia Raisele (PhD Candidate, La Trobe University) to discuss their experiences in conducting transnational and multi-sited fieldwork, including strategies for navigating diverse cultural contexts and managing both logistical and ethical challenges across multiple locations.
Join us to understand what this kind of methodology means for the discipline and its boundaries.
We’d love to see you there!
