Resistance from communities often complicates the work of field researchers, who face obstacles when seeking to understand social dynamics. This book explores how such resistance can reveal deeper insights, turning challenges into opportunities for analysis. Drawing from diverse examples—from Nazi rocket scientists to Disney union-busters—it examines the mechanisms of resistance and offers strategies for researchers to navigate these barriers. By highlighting the implications of these encounters, it serves as both a practical and theoretical guide for understanding community dynamics in research contexts.
