Extreme Childhoods – Research on and with Extremism- and Terrorism-Affiliated Families.
When and how should research include the voices of vulnerable participants, and how can researchers build trust?
Should extremists and terrorists be given a platform in research?
What risks arise when studying security-sensitive issues?
Drawing on over four years of research on the children of right-wing extremists, ISIS members who travelled to Syria and Iraq, and other parents affiliated with violent extremism, Dr Schneider will explore questions of ethics and trustworthiness in qualitative research. Her talk will address the opportunities and challenges encountered across the research cycle: gaining access to hard-to-reach participants, preparing for interviews with vulnerable individuals, reflecting on researcher bias, and ethically representing complex and sensitive findings.
