[en] In the slipstream of increasing research activities in early childhood education and care
(ECEC) during the last decades also ethnographic studies became an important resource for
the production of scientific knowledge in this research area. Going out from a review of relevant
literature the paper intends to enquire about the status the field of ECEC has in different
studies for the production of ethnographic knowledge about ECEC. After working out that the
idea of „field” in ECEC-related ethnography mainly is defined in relation to a certain place
the paper discusses the limits of this idea and the possibilities of an alternative conceptualization
of the research field in ECEC-related ethnography, which may allow the field of ECEC
becoming a discrete object of investigation.
