Strategies of Qualitative Inquiry

Strategies of Qualitative Inquiry

This book is the second of three paperback volumes taken from <strong>The SAGE Handbook of Qualitative Research, Fourth Edition. </strong>This volume isolates the major strategiesۥhistorically, the research methodsۥthat researchers can use in conducting concrete qualitative studies. The question of methods begins with questions of design and the matters of money and funding. These questions always begin with the researcher who moves from a research question to a paradigm or perspective, and then to the empirical world. The history and uses of these strategies are explored extensively in this volume. The chapters move from forms (and problems with) mixed methods inquiry to case study, performance and narrative ethnography, to constructionist analytics to grounded theory strategies, testimonies, participatory action research, and clinical research.
