Zusatztext Gives a brief and very personal introduction to Grounded Theory which makes it a very valuable resource for the novice students interested in using Grounded Theory for their own research. Informationen zum Autor Massimiliano Tarozzi is UNESCO Chair in Global Citizenship Education in Higher Education and Professor in the Department of Philosophy and Communication Studies at the University of Bologna, Italy, where he is Founding Director of the International Research Centre on Global Citizenship Education. He is co-author, with Carlos Alberto Torres, of Global Citizenship Education and the Crises of Multiculturalism (2016) and Grounded Theory (2020), both published by Bloomsbury.This book outlines key methodological issues of grounded theory as it is used across the social sciences. Zusammenfassung What is Grounded Theory? provides a compelling account of an approach that has come to be one of the most widely used qualitative research methods across a wide range of subject areas and in the disciplines of nursing, health sciences, computer science, marketing, social psychology and education, among others. Drawing on two decades of research practice and teaching, Tarozzi explains what Grounded Theory (GT) is, exploring its historical context, the many and sometimes antithetical approaches that have emerged of it and the epistemological implications of its application to different disciplines. With chapter summaries, further reading lists and a wealth of practical examples, the author shows how to do GT, accompanying the reader through the various phases of the research project. Using GT in research is an adventurous journey: one can only understand what GT is by doing it. Inhaltsverzeichnis Series Editor IntroductionIntroduction Part I: Understanding Grounded Theory 1.
