What is it about?

this is an article about the context and dynamic processes of ethnographic fieldwork in the study of religions. It interrogates whether it is productive to rely on the division as insider/outsider.

Why is it important?

It is important because it contributes to the debate on the insider/outsider dichotomy

Perspectives

I hope the article has interesting details on what it means to do research in a community that one comes from and the dilemmas, challenges benefits and confusions. I also hope it speaks to a broader debate on the tenability of the dichotomy of being an insider or outsider.
