内容説明

This text draws together the experience of fieldworkers from economics and anthropology with a view to examining the real problems faced by fieldworkers. The context of data collection in the field is emphasized as being just as important as the actual procedures, and the authors see the two processes as being interlinked. They argue that there is rarely a "right" or "wrong" approach, underlining the advantages and disadvantages of most methods.
