abstract:
Starting from a brief reflection on the current role of fieldwork in the geographical debate, the role of the qualitative methods is deepened. In order to test the remarks emerged in the theoretical part, an experience of fieldwork is presented. Considering also the everyday times, the commercial street is used as starting point to analyze the role of the researcher with respect to the object of the investigation, his/her positionality, the displacements necessary during the investigation.
