Key Themes in Qualitative Research by Paul Atkinson & Amanda Coffey & Sara Delamont
Continuities and Changes
This work presents a view of qualitative methodology and research. It covers topics such as intimacy, advocacy, and validity, and how they may be supported, redesigned, or made problematic in the present field. It allows for a critical analysis of Old Guard vs. Avant-Garde ideas.This is an attempt by three well-respected ethnographic researchers to present a balanced view of qualitative methodology and research. The book is structured around classic texts, written by methodological pioneers, which comprise the basic foundation of modern qualitative research. The authors examine key premises in these texts, such as intimacy, advocacy and validity and how they may be supported, redesigned or made problematic in today's field. This allows for a critical analysis of Old Guard vs. Avant-Garde ideas and provides for the reader a guide to wade through the proliferation of texts and theories available since the post-modern turn. While not designed as a primer in qualitative research methods, anyone with modest experience in the field should find this book useful. |
