Bu çalışmamda, araştırmacı ve saha arasındaki dinamik etkileşimi, özellikle de araştırmacı kendi toplumuyla etkileşime geçtiğinde ortaya çıkan dinamikleri incelemeye çalıştım. Araştırmacının kendini içeriden ya da dışarıdan biri olarak algılamasının, saha çalışmasını nasıl etkilediğini ve bunun hem araştırma süreci hem de araştırmacının kişisel kimliği üzerindeki etkilerini tartışmaya açtım. Çalışmam, aynı zamanda araştırmacının saha içinde aidiyet, içeridenlik veya dışarıdanlık duygularını nasıl deneyimlediğini de incelemektedir. Sekiz yıl boyunca çeşitli ortamlarda yaptığım gözlemlere, saha ziyaretlerine ve saha çalışmalarına dayanan bu araştırma, kişisel deneyimlerimin ve değişen tutumlarımın 'ev' ile araştırma sahası arasındaki sınırı nasıl etkilediğini inceliyor. Araştırmayı göçmenlerle birlikte, onların anılarını incitme ihtimalini göze alarak yürüttüğümün ve bu durumun hem araştırmacı hem de ‘içeriden’ biri olarak omuzlarıma ciddi bir sorumluluk yüklediğinin de farkına varmış bulunmaktayım. Bu makalede, 'içeriden' statümün katılımcı gözlem ve topluluk içindeki doğrudan etkileşimler üzerindeki etkisini analiz ederek, otobiyografi.

In this study, I have attempted to explore the dynamic interplay between the researcher and the field, particularly when the researcher interacts with her/his community. I have discussed how the researcher's perception of herself as an insider or outsider affects her fieldwork and the implications for both the research process and the researcher's personal identity. My study also explores how the researcher experiences a sense of belonging and their position as either an insider or an outsider. Based on eight years of observations, site visits and fieldwork in various settings, this research explores how my personal experiences and changing attitudes affect the boundary between 'home' and the research field. I have also come to realize that conducting research with migrants involves the risk of disturbing or offending their memories, which places a significant responsibility on me as both a researcher and an 'insider'. In this paper, by analyzing the impact of my 'insider' status on participant observation and direct interactions within the community, I have attempted to explore how autobiography and autoethnography intersect and shape the process and outcomes of fieldwork.
