Sinopsis

This book brings together a collection of essays which look creatively and imaginatively at issues of research methods and methodology in sociology. Some papers critically revisit and redefine techniques such as the classic community study, the use of diaries, photography and art, others examine the need for reflexivity in the research process and the epistemological issues arising from being a researcher in administrative and political contexts. The diversity of research approaches discussed in this reader should make it an important contribution to research methods teaching for undergraduate and graduate students of sociology.

Reseña del editor

This collection of papers from the 1993 British Sociological Association conference, 'Research Imaginations', held at the University of Essex, brings together essays which look creatively and imaginatively at issues of research methodology in sociology. Some of the papers revisit and redefine existing techniques of data collection, such as those used in the Mass Observation project of the 1930s, the classic community study, diaries, in-depth interviews and visual materials like photographs and paintings; some examine the need for reflexivity in the research process; others confront important epistemological issues.
