The Qualitative Manifesto

What are the prospects for those who engage in qualitative inquiry? The leading figure in the qualitative community, Norman Denzin, provides a “call to arms” for researchers in this brief, provocative book. Denzin asks for a research tradition engaged in social justice, sensitive to identity and indigenous concerns, brave to risk presentation in forms beyond traditional academic writing, and committed to teaching this to their students and colleagues. He outlines a cogent, inclusive blueprint for the future of the field. This is an important work for anyone engaged in qualitative inquiry.
