Foundations of Qualitative Research Dawn Snape and Liz Spencer D efining qualitative research The historical d e v e l o p m e n t of qualitative research K ey philosophical and methodological issues in qualitative research The 'approach' within this book 2 5 12 10 We begin with a brief history of qualitative research, its traditions and philosophical underpinnings. This is not intended as a comprehensive and detailed account, but rather as edited highlights of an evolutionary process. There are several reasons why it is helpful to understand something of the background of qualitative research before going on to discuss the specifics of how to do it. First, it is important to recognise that there is no single, accepted way of doing qualitative research. Indeed, how researchers carry it out depends upon a range of factors including: their beliefs about the nature of the social world and what can be known about it (ontology), the nature of knowledge and how it can be acquired (epistemology), the purpose(s) and goals of the research, the characteristics of the research participants, the audience for the research, the funders of the research, and the position and environment of the researchers themselves. This chapter considers how differences in the mix of these factors have led to distinctive approaches to qualitative research. Second, it has been argued that it is important to be aware of the philosophical debates and the…

University As criminologists we face two contemporary crises. The first is the unfolding crisis of global capitalism and state governance, and with it the spiraling social harms of dislocation, incarceration, impoverishment, and environmental degradation. Amidst these spiraling harms will surely emerge, sadly, a further host of phenomena demanding the critical attention of criminologists: new forms of acquisitive violence, new crimes attuned to economic and existential uncertainty,…

additional materials. The Process of Science by Anthony Carpi, Ph.D., Anne E. Egger, Ph.D. Several years ago, a student working on an undergraduate research project in my laboratory approached me with concern. “I’m doing something wrong,” she exclaimed.

of scientific and technological production1. Despite the fact that science and technology are clearly distinct forms of knowledge (the former basically concerned to explain phenomena, the latter designed to deliver physical and social dominion and control over nature), in this paper they will be examined en bloc with regard to their relation to a particular social praxis. The object of analysis is thus species of scientific and technological activity that combine these two forms…
