Résumé : |
Shadowing is a research method, often associated with an ethnographic approach, which involves following a person like a shadow – "walking in his or her footsteps" – through his or her various activities and different movements, taking many field notes or recording. Due to its mobility, flexibility, and its longitudinal nature, shadowing is presented as a privileged method to study work practices (which are increasingly distributed) and the dynamic nature of organizations (Czarniawska, 2007). From my personal experience in doing shadowing in two fieldworks, I propose to reflect on the contributions and challenges of this research method as means for studying processes organizing. More specifically, I focus on the reflexive dimension characterizing shadowing to question the status of the researcher as a shadow, as well as his or her relation with the shadowee. |
