THE ARTICLES REVIEWED here revisit old quandaries of anthropological research—the terms and conditions of access, protocols of confidentiality, routine (if inadvertent) betrayals of informants, complicity in embedding structures of power, and ambiguities of reciprocity—hand explore new variations of these and other problems. Informed consent raises distinctive problems in field settings not adequately addressed by IRB prescriptions or conventional tradecraft. Informants who read, figure in and sometimes collaborate on ethnographies introduce further complexities. The applicability of shield laws to field notes ought to be investigated. Ethnographic findings themselves remain vulnerable to misuse that only vigilance and engaged response can hope to counter
