Concerned with traditional power imbalances between researchers and participants, contemporary social science has begun using collaborative research as an empowering methodology that involves participants in key decisions. Collaborative research is a potentially revolutionary method for studying people and their cultures, but does it work in practice? Staging Strife looks at the limits of this methodology by examining a politically charged theatre performance undertaken with a group of Roma women in Poland.

"Staging Strife is a serious advance in state-of-the-art ethnography. Much is made these days about reflexivity, but few authors actually go out and do it - at least they do not do it so honestly and self critically with real life examples. This text is a magnificent exception. I cannot commend the author highly enough for trying all of this and skilfully writing about her experience." Peter Stephenson, Department of Anthropology, University of Victoria
