SERAFINO, Irene. Artistic creation on community processes: some methodological issues. Sociologia [online]. 2019, vol.38, pp.52-70. ISSN 0872-3419.  https://doi.org/10.21747/08723419/soc38a3.

From the field experience in a four-year empiric research, integrated in my Ph.D in Sociology, are shown considerations about the role social researchers plays. Thoughts about thePele_Espaço de Contacto Social e Cultural association's case study , acts in the city of Porto since 2007, raised questions related to the sociologist interaction with the analyzed context: the “doing" and "being" of the sociologist in the field; the ethical implications; the centrality of in-depth and long-term fieldwork; the balance between, collaboration, approximation, and critical analytical detachment.

Keywords : Methodology; Reflexivity; Community artistic practices.
