| Summary/Abstract |
Conducting research in the home country brings diverse experiences to a researcher as the researcher is considered as both insider and outsider by the informants. I conducted fieldwork in the Chittagong Hill Tracts - a multiethnic setting situated in the southeastern part of Bangladesh - where I was considered both insider and outsider. In the light of such experiences, in this article I discuss the researcher's position and the level of engagement - how a researcher situates himself or herself in the field and gathers information from different people. This article also discusses briefly the methodological procedures of the study.
