| Abstract: | Summary Having first situated emotions within a broader theoretical context, this paper considers the benefits and the drawbacks of discussing emotions in accounts of the research process. The paper goes on to provide a personal account of my emotional response to conducting research in the West End of Newcastle, before concluding with some suggestions as to ways of taking the debate forward. |
