Description
Summary:The brief, practical texts in the Essentials of Qualitative Methods series introduce social science and psychology researchers to key approaches to capturing phenomena not easily measured quantitatively, offering exciting, nimble opportunities to gather in-depth qualitative data. In this book, Michelle Fine and Maria Elena Torre provide an introduction to participant action research, an approach that reveals the everyday stories of struggle and survival of the persons being studied, combats social injustice and leverages social science research for action. Participant action research challenged the traditional and narrow ways in which research has been conducted and elevates the voices and perspectives of formerly marginalized groups.
