Doing Field Projects

Methods and Practice for Social and Anthropological Research

Omschrijving

Doing Field Projects: Methods and Practice for Social and Anthropological Research delivers a robust and comprehensive introduction to qualitative field research methods in the social sciences. Accessible yet insightful, this textbook is divided into twelve sections, each of which introduces students to the major qualitative fieldwork techniques for the social sciences plus some innovative ones. The book focuses particularly on anthropological methods and includes over twenty individual projects for students to carry out. The authors include explorations of interviewing, participant observation, kinship charting, photo and video documentation, auto-ethnography, and an extensive series of online research strategies. Each project is suitable as a standalone exercise or as part of a series for a complete course in field methods. The projects contain detailed descriptions of how to carry out the research, how to address common pitfalls and problems, and how to present the finished work in a variety of formats. Doing Field Projects: Methods and Practice for Social and Anthropological Research encourages students to observe the world around them as a social scientist would, and to learn to identify opportunities to study elements of society and culture in everyday life. It is an invaluable guide for undergraduate students in qualitative field methods courses, especially in anthropology, sociology, or human geography. This textbook also deserves a place in the libraries of students in any field where qualitative research is widely used.
