The Ethical Issues in Ethnographic Research

Pinaki Dey Mullick ^[3] | Paramita Sen ^[2]

Abstract: Doing and conducting ethnographic research, the role of the researchers motivations, design of the research, reflexive nature of the researchers self, the nature of interpretation of the findings, and above all the moral and ethical stands of the researcher is been scrutinized per se as it deals with human agencies. The moral and ethical issues with its politicization and objectified imposition on the ethnographer are key concern of the present article. The authors are inclined to reflect the major and significant dimensions of ethical issues in ethnographic and/or social research along with its limitations, prejudices, contradictions and complexities in contemporary ethnographic practices in different academic discourses.
