About article:
The study focuses on the process of ethnographic field research among homeless people from the perspective of researcher. It presents methodological approaches vis-á-vis initial ideas about the field research before going out to the field. The study covers the problematic aspects of the course of the research, from entry in the field up to the generation of data in relation to the changing positionality of the researcher.
It shows how the relationship between the contact persons and the researcher changes in a given situation on the basis of the different characteristic features of the public and the private space and the forms of power that affect this space. Emphasis is placed on gender issues in the field and on how this fact influences the field research, contacts and the researcher. It describes the various forms and contexts of violence, from symbolic up to sexual ones. The study asks questions about how violence can be minimised during field research, and offers proposals for solutions.
