“No sir, she was not a fool in the field”: Gendered risks and sexual violence in immersed cross-cultural fieldwork
Résumé
It is rare to hear about the gendered risks of field work. My experiences with sexual violence with key informants forced me to
assume a variety of defensive behaviors, which ran counter to the ways that scholarly discussions of methods tend to emphasize
the importance of reducing distance and shifting power away from the researcher in a cross-cultural context. By considering
gendered risks, I question the extent to which an idealized male researcher is still viewed as the archetype from which methods
are conceptualized and practiced, and the implications are then discussed
