ABSTRACT

This chapter explores how team research can generate new perspectives and insights into superdiverse contexts. It draws on researchers’ vignettes to explore how interpretations are performed, negotiated and reworked within diverse research teams. We focus on vignettes reflecting team members’ interpretation of their experience of “entering the field” and the process of conducting ethnographic fieldwork. The analysis sheds light on how our understanding of superdiverse contexts is shaped by researchers’ personal biographies and how relationships of power play out in research teams. The chapter also reflects on vignettes as a tool for exploring the process of team research.
