Designing Qualitative ResearchCompletely revised and updated, this second edition of Designing Qualitative Research offers systematic guidance in the conceptual processes and methodological strategies for developing sound, defensible proposals for qualitative research. It features lucid discussions on the critical traditions within qualitative inquiry, showing how this critique expands the scope of possible research strategies; conceptualizations of researchers' roles; and possibilities for more collaborative ways of doing qualitative research. A new chapter organization highlights the important topics of data collection methods, data management and analysis, and resource allocation decisions, all of which are revised, updated, and feature fresh, new examples. New and updated vignettes provide illustrations that take the reader through the complex processes of proposal development. |
