DESCRIPTION:'Fuck you and fuck your fucking thesis': Subverting Perception
 s of Vulnerability in Empirical Research\n\n \n\nResearch ethics framework
 s require researchers to identify and assess the “vulnerability” of re
 search participants. Too often\, this process is accompanied by a lack of 
 scrutiny of what is meant by “vulnerable”\, and the connotations of pa
 ssivity and powerlessness that this term can evoke. In this session\, we e
 xplore two radical re-interpretations of what it means to be vulnerable in
  the context of empirical research\, both as a research participant and as
  a researcher.\n\n \n\nReadings:\n\nTagonist\, Anne. 2009. Fuck you and fu
 ck your fucking thesis: why I will not participate in trans studies. [Onli
 ne]. Available at: https://tagonist.livejournal.com/199563.html\nBehar\, R
 uth. 1996. ‘The Vulnerable Observer’ in The Vulnerable Observer: Anthr
 opology that Breaks Your Heart. Beacon Press: Boston.\n
