This is a particular challenge for researchers in the security field, which is by nature secretive and difficult to access. This book creatively assesses and analyses the ways in which secrecies operate in security research. The collection sets out new understandings of secrecy, and shows how secrecy itself can be made productive to research analysis. It offers students, PhD researchers and senior scholars a rich toolkit of methods and best-practice examples for ethically appropriate ways of navigating secrecy. It pays attention to the balance between confidentiality, and academic freedom and integrity. The chapters draw on the rich qualitative fieldwork experiences of the contributors, who did research at a diversity of sites, for example at a former atomic weapons research facility, inside deportation units, in conflict zones, in everyday security landscapes, in virtual spaces and at borders, bureaucracies and banks.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book will be of interest to students of research methods, critical security studies and International Relations in general.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Open Access version of this book, available at \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003ewww.taylorfrancis.com\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMarieke de Goede\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Political Science at the University of Amsterdam.
