Dear All,
I would like to inform you that the 15th FQS Issue is now available
online. FQS 5(2) examines theories, methods, and empirical studies in
the field of qualitative market, media and opinion research. In addition
to the articles involving qualitative market, media and opinion
research, FQS 5(2) also contains, as always, selected single
contributions dealing with grounded theory, analyses of photographs,
usage of poems for qualitative research, and qualitative evaluation
methods for higher education. Subsequent articles explore the role
regional television plays in shaping regional identities, the
construction of sports narration, and pathways to treatment between
traditional and scientific medicine.
Four articles are featured in FQS Debates: two submissions contribute to
the ongoing discussion in the FQS Debate on "Ethnography of the Career
Politics," the remaining two articles deal with "Qualitative Research
and Ethics." FQS Reviews includes review notes and review essays on
various themes, addressing for example the integration of qualitative
and quantitative research, metaphor analysis, and the construction of
masculinity in an Austrian right-wing party. Two texts are available
under FQS Conferences: one on a Methods Workshop, organized by the
Centre for Women's, Gender and Queer Studies at the University of
Hamburg, Germany, and another gives a summary of the British
Psychological Society Annual Conference, held in April 2004 in London,
UK.
See below the table of contents.
We wish hopefully stimulating readings and discussions!
