MARQUEZ, Israel. The ethics of ethnographic research in cyberworlds. Anthropologica [online]. 2014, vol.32, n.33, pp.111-135. ISSN 0254-9212.
The following paper presents a reflection on the ethics of ethnographic research in so-called virtual worlds or cyberworlds. Based on my own experience in Second Life, there, Onverse and twinity, issues related to transparency, presence, privacy and anonymity are discussed. Although research in cyberworlds shares some ethical problems with traditional and virtual ethnography, they present new difficulties and ethical dilemmas during fieldwork that should be identified and analyzed from a critical point of view.
