Summary, in English

This chapter introduces the volume by presenting the questions of politics and ethics of representation in qualitative research. It also shows how these are approached in the following chapters through analyses of moments of discomfort in our research practice. We situate our work in critical, feminist and engaged scholarship and discuss how creating representation in qualitative research is linked to the issues of accountability and solidarity. The introduction then offers an overview of the chapters, showing how different representational practices, both in the field and in writing, open up for important ethical and political dilemmas.
