Doing Ultra Realist Ethnography: Romantacism and Running with the Riotous (While Buying Your Round)

This section concerns the praxis of ethnography, or my own doing of ethnography
in precarious inner-city locations in central England. When criminological ethnographers
write of their own experiences, they often use travel metaphors, and I suppose
that I could dress this up in some sort of personal voyage or journey through
ethnography, but I hope that the trip isn’t over yet, and the problem with such travel
metaphors is that they suggest a road travelled, and well, I am not sure that I have
gone that far.
