Reconceptualizing Qualitative Research: Methodologies without Methodology

The book problematizes taken for granted ideas about data, research design, and researcher responsibility, and in so doing challenges students’ beliefs, paradigms, and methodological frameworks. The text includes numerous photographs, helpful glossary at the start of each chapter, comment boxes from real graduate students, and suggestions for how to implement the ideas presented in your own research project. The book focuses on audiences, communities, and participants in a way that no other qualitative text does. It will be a welcome addition to qualitative research courses that focus on methodological creativity, complexity, and theoretical diversity.
