Description

This book is available as open access through the Bloomsbury Open Access programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com. This volume offers a new introduction to an evolving research method in the social sciences.

Qualitative Longitudinal (QL) research is conducted through time.

In its qualitative dimensions it opens up the potential to 'think dynamically' in creative, flexible and innovative ways. QL enquiry is rooted in a long-established tradition of qualitative temporal research, spanning the fields of social anthropology, sociological re-studies and biographical research.

But over the past two decades, a growing body of scholarship has begun to document this approach and explore its theoretical underpinnings.

This in turn has fuelled a growing interest in and rapid uptake of QL methodology across the disciplines and in international context. This practical volume will be a first port of call for students and researchers wishing to use QL research in their own projects.

The chapters follow a logical development, from conceptual and methodological foundations, to research practice and ethics, to the generation and analysis of data. Each chapter offers practical examples drawn from the research field to illustrate key themes and the rich possibilities for new applications.
