Caitlin Ryan (UL) Why does the world think that we are the terrorists? Conducting research with Palestinian women

Department of Politics and Public Administration Seminar
Wednesday, 21st March, 3.00pm, F1030

Abstract: Choosing to research Palestinian female suicide bombers/martyrs results in some challenging methodological issues. My presentation will focus on my recently completed field research trip to Palestine. I spent six weeks in December and January interviewing Palestinian women throughout the West Bank. I will discuss my methodology for my field research, the reflexive process I employed and some of my preliminary results.

Presentation followed by tea/coffee and discussion. All welcome!
