THE ETHNOGRAPHIC PRINCIPAL DEFINITION FULL
Ethnographic research has special qualities suited to dealing with controversial topics in sensitive locations, for it entails a gradual and progressive contact with respondents, which is sustained over a long period, allowing a rapport to be established slowly with respondents over time, and for researchers to participate in the full range of experiences involved in the topic.
