The Chicago Guide to Collaborative Ethnography (Chicago Guides to Writing, Editing, and Publishing)

The Chicago Guide to Collaborative Ethnography is a comprehensive and accessible handbook for ethnographers of all stripes, providing a roadmap for shifting from incidental collaboration to a more conscious and explicit collaborative strategy.

This guide charts the history of collaborative ethnography, outlines concrete steps for achieving a more deliberate and overt collaborative practice, and argues that collaborative ethnography is among the most powerful ways to press ethnographic fieldwork and writing into the service of an applied and public scholarship.

With a focus on the co-construction of texts and the ethical commitments between ethnographers and consultants, this guide will become a fixture in the development of a more collaborative and impactful approach to ethnographic research.
