Assembling the 'field': conducting research in Indonesia's emerging green economy

Abstract: "New forms of environmental governance, such as the green economy, premise reconfigurations of social relations and rearticulations of scale, which raise myriad questions for field researchers, not least of all, what actually constitutes 'the field', and where it is to be found.
