ABSTRACT
This chapter explores the course of multi-sited fieldwork with Friends of the Earth International (FoEI) and the different methods how these were responsive to the situations that arose through fieldwork. Tracing the continually changing course of multi-sited fieldwork will illustrate how disponibilite informed the preparation and carrying out of fieldwork in practice. The chapter argues that FoEI activists emplacements in the world do not fit neatly with George. Marcus's understanding of sites, due to the spatial assumptions inherent in his logic. According to Marcus, the connections across sites explored in multi-sited fieldwork are understood to derive from world-spanning systems or flows, such as colonialism and capitalism. The most common concern raised about multi-sited methodology is loss of depth. There is more to the activists' emplacement than ideology of scale and place.
