- Abstract
- Critical reflexivity helps me locate the turbulence in my identity which occurred when navigating through the social mediations during my research on women’s spatial mobility in my native suburbs of Algiers. Returning to ‘home’ has triggered for me a continuous subjective movement between my Self and its ‘double,’ both as an individual and as a researcher. It is thus crucial to considering how my specific multi situated position has shed new light on ethical dilemmas, and how ethics need to be contextualized as we progress through the social relations tied to the scientific journey, and should be guiding principles rather than a set of rigid norms.
