Bourdieu, Language-based Ethnographies and Reflexivity : Putting Theory into Practice PDF
by Michael (Trinity College, University of Dublin, Ireland) Grenfell, Kate (Manchester Metropolitan University, UK) Pahl
Description
Offering a unique and original perspective on Bourdieu, language-based ethnographies,and reflexivity, this volume provides a nuanced, in-depth discussion of the complex relationship between these interconnected topics and their impact in real-world contexts.
Part I opens the book with an overview of the historical background and development of language-based ethnographic research and Bourdieu’s work in this space.
Part II presents a series of case studies that highlight a Bourdieusian perspective and demonstrate how reflexivity impacts language-based ethnography.
In each study, Bourdieu’s conceptual framework of reflexively-informed objectivity examines the ways in which the studies themselves were constructed and understood.
Building on Parts I and II, the concluding set of chapters in Part III unpacks the messiness of the theory and practice of language-based ethnography, and provides insights into what reflexivity means for Bourdieu and in practical contexts.
Arguing for a greater reflexive understanding in research practice, this volume sets an agenda for future literacy and language research.
