ABSTRACT
Anthropological knowledge can be thought of as the outcome of a process that starts with an extended period of social interaction. Long-term fieldwork out there has traditionally been presented as the preferred method of anthropologists in search of the natives point of view. This chapter describes the author's fieldwork was limited to three short periods, in accordance with the organisation Exits wishes. Exit is a Swedish NGO that supports, former, right-wing extremists in the process of leaving the White Power Movement. In a field centred on stigmatised and vigilant peopleas former neo-Nazis arerelationships seem even more important, as they often constitute the researchers access to understanding the field. Culture in anthropological research is in general no longer perceived as singular separated wholes to be found out there, making the recognition of underlining cultural patterns defined within geographical borders the goal of the research. Culture is now understood as an analytical term focusing on social practices and processes.
