• W2614450789 abstract "Introduction Feminist research general, and feminist ethnographic research particular, are characterised by heightened reflexivity and the pursuit of 'situated knowledge' (Haraway, 1988). While what constitutes feminist research methods is variable, at the heart of feminist social science lies a critique of the traditional positivist paradigm of research and a recognition of the subjective nature of knowledge claims. Feminist scholars have widely rejected the objectifying and seemingly neutral stance of the researcher as neither possible nor desirable, arguing that meaningful research relies instead on empathy and mutuality (Oakley, 1981). Although the desire for developing relationships with research participants has been presented as an ethical imperative and feminist antidote to the abstracted epistemologies that pervade traditional Western research accounts, deepened rapport brings its own ethical concerns. In recognition of the disturbing ethical naivety to arise when researchers romanticize the process of doing rapport, (Duncombe and Jessop, 2002 p.6) this paper reinforces the need for a reflexive interrogation of the interactions that occur during fieldwork and the influence of these upon the research process and product. Drawing upon post-structural feminist scholars, I argue for a conception of reflexivity that takes heed of the personal, interpersonal, institutional, emotional, epistemological and ontological influences on our research (Doucet and Mauthner, 2002). As Ramazanoglu and Holland argue, in connecting theory, experience and judgement, the knowing feminist should be accountable for the sense she makes of her own and other people's accounts, and how her judgements are made (1999 p.386). Exposing the political project we as researchers are engaged illuminates our objectives, attempts to account for personal assumptions and ultimately offers the only justification we can for the representations we make (Gillies and Alldred, 2002 p.23). Although I accept this on a conceptual level, there have been few methodological explorations into how to cultivate reflexive research practice as best befits a feminist orientation. The means by which feminist ethnographers acknowledge their positionality is variable, ranging from traditional practices of diary keeping during fieldwork to the creation of overtly introspective auto-ethnographies. This paper introduces a companion method to the practice of diarising--the recording of notes during fieldwork. Drawing on ethnographic data from my PhD fieldwork, I illustrate how a voice diary, which reflects an emotional response to fieldwork, can back and confront the researcher, demanding self-reappraisal (Hodder Dunne et al, 2005 p.88). The PhD research that this paper draws on is concerned with the development of aspirations of young black (2) South Africans born post-apartheid. My fieldwork took place a rural township Mpumalanga province, on the border of the Kruger National Park, where I immersed myself one secondary school and among its group of final year students particular. I entered my field site highly conscious of my positionality. I am a woman of mixed Middle Eastern/European extraction, raised South Africa and with prior experience of working and volunteering within the area. While I approached my field with a degree of insider knowledge, my position as an outsider is more relevant this context. This is because, despite the rainbow nation discourse that appears to pervade post-apartheid public consciousness, the majority of youth born into the new democracy remain largely unexposed to people outside of their proximal environments. My participants had seen non-black people before but had not had much opportunity to speak to outsiders, given the rural location where they live, a zone set aside for black people only as part of apartheid's policy of separate development. …" @default.
