Abstract
Over the last two decades the study of the social and the spatial transitions in South Africa has drawn numerous researchers and postgraduate students from all over the world, in particular from the US and West Europe. Based on our experiences as Belgian doctoral students doing fieldwork in South Africa, we discuss some of the challenges that confront early career human geographers from abroad when conducting research in South Africa. Specifically, we concentrate on the unequal relations between researchers from the North and research participants from the South.
