Abstract

This article explores some of the ethical dilemmas we have encountered as emerging Latina researchers in dual language school contexts. Informed by Chicana Feminist Theory, we attempt to analyze power in more nuanced ways, shifting the analysis of ethics away from traditional notions of power based only within the researcher rather than the participants. We do not offer solutions to these dilemmas, but rather we raise questions to spur thoughtful reflection for ethics in the field of education.
