Chapter 19
Ethnography & participant observation


Introduction
Ethnography:

 Often preferred over participant observation because participant observation seems to
imply just observation although in practice they do a lot more
 Sometimes taken to refer to a study in which participant observation is the prevalent
research method but also has a specific focus on the culture of the group in which the
ethnographer is immersed
 It can be something that is carried out in doing
 research and/or something that one reads
 Two kinds of meanings
o A method of research
o The written product of that research

Ethnography as a research method in which the researcher:

 Is immersed in a social setting for an extended period of time
 Makes regular observations of the behavior of members of that setting
 Listens o & engages in conversations
 Interviews informants on issues that are not directly amendable to observation or that
the ethnographer is unclear about
 Collects documents about the group
 Develops an understanding about the culture of the group & people’s behavior within
the context of that culture
 Writes up a detailed account of that setting

Micro-ethnography:

 Involves focusing on a specific aspect/topic
