Ethnography of Organized Crime: The Case of Brazil
Résumé
Today’s seminar is about ethnography. Ethnography involves spending time in the field, establishing trust and intimacy with the people observed. But how is this possible when one investigates illegal, often violent, activities and networks? Drawing from his ethnographic fieldwork on various criminal groups in Brazil, Gabriel Feltran (Sciences Po, CEE, CNRS) tells us how he faced the epistemological, ethical, and practical challenges involved in this task. Federico Varese (Sciences Po, CEE), a specialist on organized crime, discusses his methodology, drawing from his own research.
