Exploring the dynamic growth, change, and complexity of qualitative
research in human geography, The SAGE Handbook of Qualitative
Geography brings together leading scholars in the field to examine
its history, assess the current state of the art, and project
future directions. "In its comprehensive coverage, accessible text,
and range of illustrative studies, past and present, the Handbook
has established an impressive new standard in presenting
qualitative methods to geographers." - David Ley, University of
British Columbia Moving beyond textbook rehearsals of standard
issues, the Handbook shows how empirical details of qualitative
research can be linked to the broader social, theoretical,
political, and policy concerns of qualitative geographers and the
communities within which they work. The book is organized into
three sections: Part I: Openings engages the history of qualitative
geography, and details the ways that research, and the researcher's
place within it, are conceptualized within broader academic,
political, and social currents. Part II: Encounters and
Collaborations describes the different strategies of inquiry that
qualitative geographers use, and the tools and techniques that
address the challenges that arise in the research process. Part
III: Making Sense explores the issues and processes of
interpretation, and the ways researchers communicate their results.
Retrospective as well as prospective in its approach, this is
geography's first peer-to-peer engagement with qualitative research
detailing how to conceive, carry out and communicate qualitative
research in the twenty-first century. Suitable for postgraduate
students, academics, and practitioners alike, this is the methods
resource for researchers in human geography.
