To conduct quality research, many social scientists must venture to distant parts of the globe, spending extended periods in unfamiliar and uncomfortable environments. Despite thorough preparation, unforeseen challenges arise during fieldwork. In 'Doing Global Fieldwork', political scientist Jesse Driscoll provides a practical guide for social scientists planning extended mixed-methods international fieldwork. He outlines key steps, from initial planning to navigating political obstacles and finalizing research findings. Driscoll stresses adaptability, as ideas shift, plans change, and issues inevitably arise. He offers practical insights into psychological and physical preparation, professionalization, and self-presentation for researchers abroad. Driscoll explores challenges in difficult settings like war zones, contested territories, and volatile nondemocratic states, discussing practical and ethical data collection considerations. 'Doing Global Fieldwork' is a contemporary methodological guide for graduate students and social science researchers seeking straightforward advice for successful fieldwork.
