Description: "Reflexivity is an essential part of the research process. This book provides an invaluable guide to one of the central problems of research methodology - the need to put field research and interpretations in perspective and to confront favoured lines of interpretation." "Reflexive Methodology makes explicit the links between techniques used in empirical research and different research traditions, giving a theoretically-informed approach to qualitative research. This book points the way to a more open-minded, creative interaction between theoretical frameworks and empirical research. It will be essential reading for students and researchers across the social sciences."--BOOK JACKET.
