An Introduction to Qualitative Research
- Uwe Flick - Freie Universtität Berlin, Germany
Continuing to be THE guide to the whole qualitative research process for students, this book looks at both the theory behind qualitative research and how to put it into practice in your own work. For students across a range of social science disciplines and beyond, this is a must to help you enhance your research project.
This edition introduces:
- a decolonisation of methodologies
- a range of indigenous, queer and feminist perspectives on methodologies
- assistance with defending a viva and alternative forms of assessment to suit a changing world.
More additions to this seventh edition include a section on the subjectivity of a researcher, and how your identity will shape your research. The further reading has been curated to include more than just western voices, providing you with global perspectives on qualitative research. This text introduces how to sensitively undertake ethical and inclusive research with marginalised groups.
This book will help you master a comprehensive understanding of qualitative research.
Supplements
Professor Uwe Flick has been a leading qualitative methodologist in the social sciences for decades. His methods texts reflect his considerable talent for presenting complex concepts and approaches in a thorough and accessible manner. This latest text is no exception.
Comprehensive and readable at academic level 5.
A comprehensive textbook on qualitative research. Simple to read and understand with examples from research in the real world.
Flick provides an easy to read, yet complex narrative around how to conduct indigenist research. This is of particular benefit to Indigenous students, who are often exposed to only eurocentric ways of knowing and doing.
Really useful reference book for students using qualitative research. The addition of non-Western perspectives is particularly helpful.
This is an excellent source for our students. We have recently used a different book for our module, however, this is a valuable resource to help students who are completing qualitative research for their dissertations.
This is a great book for both beginners and seasoned qualitative researchers
Relevance to the module descriptors
Great overview of different research methods that will be really helpful for my students
Very good textbook to teach qualitative research
