FORUM: COLLABORATIVE PROJECTS IN THE SOCIAL SCIENCES

Abstract: The Editorial Board asked the authors of the “Forum” (a written round-table) who had participated in collaborative projects to answer questions such as: why has this form of academic work become widespread, what are its merits and drawbacks, and what challenges does it reveal in a multidisciplinary context. A collaborative fieldwork-based research project represents a special case as there may arise conflicts regarding methodologies, techniques, habits, ethical procedures as well as a “competition for informants”. Participants of the “Forum” share their positive and negative experiences with collaborative projects.

Keywords: collaborative projects, fieldwork, multidisciplinarity.
