Resumo

This running theme's introduction rethinks fieldwork as an ongoing process. It explores experiences and conceptions of 'becoming fluent in fieldwork': the contextual processes through which we do, learn, and unlearn practices of fieldwork. It sees fieldwork as a collective project. Recognising the entanglement of field sites and travelling with fields to certain other fields, we become multiply entangled, and thus we ask: what do these plural relations demand from us? We turn to the concept and praxis of love as it considers the responsibility, care work and thinking-working together that is needed to respect other people's realities together with them. We foreground the notion of 'becoming fluent' that reflects fieldwork as a work in process, and emphasises the processual aspects of fieldwork: the journey that spans the time before, during and after the fieldwork. This process involves engaging meaningfully with relations, relationality and collaboration, 'ongoingness' and ethics in motion.
