对非法药物使用的人种学研究必然涉及研究人员对非法活动的认识。有关非法活动的信息是通过与研究参与者建立保密关系获得的；然而，研究人员有法律和伦理义务来破坏在研究环境中形成的保密关系。最近，一个机构伦理委员会暂停了一个研究项目，这说明了形成研究过程的一些过程，形成了合法知识的界限，以及了解非法活动的一些后果。版权所有爱思唯尔科学有限公司
Ethnographic research into illicit drug use necessarily involves the researcher being aware of illegal activities. Information about illegal activities is obtained through the establishment of confidential relationships with research participants; however there are legal and ethical obligations on researchers to breach confidential relationships formed in the research environment. The recent suspension of a research project by an Institutional Ethics Committee serves to illustrate some of the processes that form the research process, shape the boundaries to legitimate knowledge and some of the consequences of knowing about illegal activities.
