One exception, however, would be a digital ethnography which explores an online social group. In process evaluations, qualitative data can contribute insights into how interventions operate and how outcomes are reached, although in practice, qualitative research is not always used to inform the trials they are part of [ 1 ]. Potter J. In an overt approach, the ethnographer openly states their intentions and acknowledges their role as a researcher to the members of the group being studied.

Where Geertz's and Turner's interpretive anthropology recognized subjects as creative actors who constructed their sociocultural worlds out of symbols, postmodernists attempted to draw attention to the privileged status of the ethnographers themselves. London: Chatto and Windus; This research method combines different techniques including fieldwork, physical interviews and online surveys in order to gather useful data on the consumer habits of target markets. This section does not cite any sources. Much debate surrounding the issue of ethics arose following revelations about how the ethnographer Napoleon Chagnon conducted his ethnographic fieldwork with the Yanomani people of South America. Carrying out ethnographic research will involve one or more research techniques depending on the field, sample size, and purpose of the research Live and work Also known as naturalism, live and work is an ethnography research technique in which the researcher observes the research variables in their natural environment in order to identify and record behavioral patterns. Ideology and ethnic conflict. Springer, Singapore. Administering a survey will help the ethnographer gather relevant data, analyze this data and arrive at objective findings. Effectively, the idea of the image is a primary tool for ethnographers to collect data. In market research, ethnography allows organizations to gain insights into consumer habits and receive first-hand feedback on the extent to which their product or service meets the needs of target markets. A History of Anthropological Theory, Pgs. He maintains that "illusions" are essential to maintain an occupational reputation and avoid potentially more caustic consequences. Ethnographic Methods Writer This critical turn in sociocultural anthropology during the mids can be traced to the influence of the now classic and often contested text, Writing Culture: The Poetics and Politics of Ethnography , edited by James Clifford and George Marcus. Springer, Singapore. In recent times, ethnography has been adopted to the internet in the form of netnography. As a form of inquiry, ethnography relies heavily on participant observation —on the researcher participating in the setting or with the people being studied, at least in some marginal role, and seeking to document, in detail, patterns of social interaction and the perspectives of participants, and to understand these in their local contexts. Some question samples for business ethnographic research include the following:. An ethnography survey is an inductive research method that is used to gather information about the research subject. Gubrium's series of organizational ethnographies focused on the everyday practices of illness, care, and recovery are notable. By becoming immersed in a social environment, you may have access to more authentic information and spontaneously observe dynamics that you could not have found out about simply by asking. But even though many sub-fields and theoretical perspectives within sociology use ethnographic methods, ethnography is not the sine qua non of the discipline, as it is in cultural anthropology. It had its origin in social and cultural anthropology in the early twentieth century, but spread to other social science disciplines, notably sociology, during the course of that century. Thousand Oaks, California: Sage. The ways in which ethnography can contribute to process evaluations have been outlined here, but as with any method, ethnography also has limitations. Methodological practices in social movement research. Similarly, ethics may be agreed on with the community on an ongoing basis, as noted above; this does not fit well with the contractual model of consent usually used in studies such as RCTs and approved by ethics committees in advance of the study. This means that researchers can now study how online communities interact in order to identify social communication patterns. Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. J Contemp Ethnogr. Ethnographic research should be used in the early stages of user-focused systematic investigations. Got a project in mind? It usually has a narrative element, which can be an accessible and engaging way to draw people into reading about the research. Usability practitioners often make use of these in order to develop their understanding of the relevant domain, audience s , processes, goals and context s of use. A description of the causal pathways would explain how the food diary design and delivery influenced participants to engage with the intervention, how the food diaries were actually used and influenced dietary behaviour in participants, whether and how self-monitoring occurred, contextual factors such as family mealtimes, and how these factors contributed to any weight loss in participants or not.

The goal of a written ethnography is to provide a rich, authoritative account of the social setting in which you were embedded—to convince the reader that your observations and interpretations are representative of reality. Because they have become part of the group and are less visible as an outsider although this process is never complete , the role of the ethnographer as an insider thus reduces the Hawthorne effects of observation.

Studies such as Gerry Philipsen's analysis of cultural communication strategies in a blue-collar , working-class neighborhood on the south side of Chicago, Speaking 'Like a Man' in Teamsterville , paved the way for the expansion of ethnographic research in the study of communication. Fine is not necessarily casting blame at ethnographic researchers but tries to show that researchers often make idealized ethical claims and standards which are inherently based on partial truths and self-deceptions.

  • Focused Ethnography: a Methodological Adaptation for Social Research in Emerging Contexts
    Volume 16, No. 1, Art. 1 January 2015 Focused Ethnography: A Methodological Adaptation for Social Research in Emerging Contexts Sarah Wall Key words: Abstract: Ethnography is one of the oldest qualitative methods, yet increasingly, researchers from focused various disciplines are using and adapting ethnography beyond its original intents. In particular, a ethnography; form of ethnography known as "focused ethnography" has emerged. However, focused ethnography; ethnography remains underspecified methodologically, which has contributed to controversy about methodology; its essential nature and value. Nevertheless, an ever-evolving range of research settings, purposes, participant and questions require appropriate methodological innovation. Using the example of a focused observation; social ethnography conducted to study nurses' work experiences, this article will demonstrate how research particular research questions, the attributes of certain cultural groups, and the unique characteristics of specific researchers compel adaptations in ethnography that address the need for methodological evolution while still preserving the essential nature of the method.

Introduction Ethnography is one of the oldest qualitative research methods, originating in nineteenth century anthropology. Yet, researchers from various disciplines are now using and adapting ethnography beyond its origins as a result of philosophical reflections on the processes and purposes of the method. New fields of study, new kinds of questions, and new reasons for undertaking ethnographic studies have emerged, and with these, a form of ethnography known as "focused ethnography" has developed.

    Peace for Whom: Agency and Intersectionality in Post-War Bosnia and Herzegovina By Elena B. Stavrevska Submitted to Central European University Doctoral School of Political Science, Public Policy and International Relations In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisor: Professor Michael Merlingen CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary January 2017 Declaration I hereby declare that this thesis contains no materials accepted for any other degrees, in any other situation. Thesis contains no materials written and/or published by any other person, except when appropriate acknowledgement is made in the form of bibliographical reference. Elena B. Stavrevska Budapest, 09.01.2017 CEU eTD Collection i ABSTRACT Both peacebuilding practice and mainstream literature have predominantly approached the examination of post-war societies is a static and unidimensional manner, portraying events, practices, and actors as fixed in space, time, and identity. In line with that approach, peace and reconciliation have often been understood as a mirror image of the preceding war. Consequently, when the conflict is regarded as a clash between different ethnicities, peace is viewed as a state of those ethnicities coming together, which is then reflected in the decision- and policy-making processes. This understanding, using the prism of groupism whereby (ethnic) groups are analysed as the primary societal actors, ascribed with particular characteristics and agency, presupposes homogeneity of the groups in question. In so doing, it disregards the various intra-group struggles and the multiplicity of social identities beyond ethnicity. Furthermore, it also cements ethnicity as the most important, if not the only important political cleavage in the new, post-war reality.

A large number of these states are confronted with ethnic conflicts, assertion of ethno-religious identity, movements for recognition, rights of self determination etc. In view of the fact that the prospect for peace and war, the maintenance of national unity and the fundamental human rights in many parts of the world and in many ways depend on the adequate solution of ethnic tensions the way States deal with the question has become one of the most important political issues in the contemporary world. Of course each state has its own unique way to deal with or responding to its cultural diversities yet there are some general approaches which states adopt, or have been suggested by experts. An understanding of the responses of States and approaches in dealing with ethnic groups will be useful for the students of comparative politics to analyse the phenomena in general and specific situations as also to make policy suggestions. 16.2 ETHNICITY: MEANING Race, ethnicity and cultural identity are complex concepts that are historically, socially and contextually based.

  • Conditional Consociationalism: Electoral Systems and Grand Coalitions∗
    Conditional Consociationalism: Electoral Systems and Grand Coalitions∗ Nils-Christian Bormanny March 25, 2011 Abstract Consociationalism is a complex set of rules and norms that is sup- posed to enable democratic governance and peaceful coexistence of different social segments in plural societies. Statistical studies of con- flict often reduce it to either a PR or federalism dummy in a regression. I extract the core definition of consociationalism from Lijphart's writ- ing and explicitly link its institutional and behavioral dimensions. I also address the possible endogeneity of electoral systems and show that once endogeneity is accounted for PR has a positive effect on eth- nic elite cooperation although historical, socio-structural and interna- tional factors exert a more robust influence. A history of violence in a country seems to antagonize elites and hinder cooperation. ∗Paper to be presented at the ECPR Joint Sessions workshop on Political Violence and Institutions from 12-17 April in St. Gallen, Switzerland.

Email: [email protected] 1 1 Introduction Was Lijphart (1977, 238) correct in pronouncing that \[f]or many of the plural societies of the non-Western world (. ) the realistic choice is not between the British normative model of democracy and the consociational model, but between consociational democracy and no democracy at all?" The appraisal of the alleged blessings of consociationalism has been incom- plete and/or hotly disputed. Most studies focus on the application to single cases, and large-N studies have only gained systematic insight at the expense of conceptual clarity.

  • Netnography & Demography
    Netnography & Demography: Mining Internet Discussion Forums on Migration and Citizenship Pablo Mateos, CIESAS / University College London Jorge Durand, Universidad de Guadalara / CIDE Abstract This paper explores the potential value of netnographic methods in social media applied to migration studies. It develops a pilot netnographic analysis of an internet discussion forum on migration and citizenship, in particular access to Spanish citizenship. 54,920 messages posted by 6,813 persons were automatically downloaded and classified into a database. Manual classification methods were performed assigning user profiles to participants and establishing key themes and ‘citizenship trajectories’. Through quantitative and qualitative analysis we identify a series of strategies to access Spanish citizenship that seek to maximize migrant’s possibilities given their life stories. An unequal pattern in the ‘geography of access’ to Spanish citizenship arises from these results. Many of these findings were previously absent from the migration and citizenship literature. The next research frontier in netnographic methods is to automate the task of assigning user profiles in discussion forums and the identification of key topics. To encourage new research in this direction, the paper ends proposing new avenues for research by adapting text-mining techniques from computer science and natural language processing to netnographic methods. Over the coming decade, promising new research developments in this area will revolutionize traditional population research methods, most definitely in migration research. On-line research methods in social science: netnography Academic research of people’s views published on the social web, comprised of internet forums, blogs, twitter, Facebook, YouTube, comments to news sites, and the like, has rocketed over the last five years.

  • ANTHROPOLOGICAL RESEARCHES and STUDIES No 4, 2014 3 a Lithuanian “Ethnographic Village”: Heritage, Private Property
    ANTHROPOLOGICAL RESEARCHES AND STUDIES No 4, 2014 A Lithuanian “Ethnographic Village”: Heritage, Private Property, Entitlement Kristina Jonutyte Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology Address correspondence to: Kristina Jonutyte, Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology, PO Box 11 03 51, 06017 Halle (Saale) Germany. Ph.: +49 (0) 345 2927 0; Fax: +49 (0) 345 2927 502; E-mail: [email protected] Abstract In this article, various aspects of engagement with the past and with heritage are explored in the context of Grybija village in southern Lithuania. The village in question is a heritage site within an "ethnographic villages" programme, which was initiated by the Soviet state and continued by Independent Lithuania after 1990. The article thus looks at the ideological aspects of heritage as well as its practical implications to Grybija's inhabitants. Moreover, local ideas about private property, righteous ownership and entitlement are explored in their complexity and in relation to the heritage project. Since much of the preserved heritage in the village is private property, various restrictions and prohibitions are imposed on local residents, which are deemed as neither righteous nor effective by many locals. In the meantime, the discourse of the "ethnographic villages" project exotifies and distances the village and its inhabitants, constructing an "Other" that is both admired and alienated. Keywords: heritage site, private property, Lithuania. The fieldsite Grybija is a small village in the far South of Lithuania, Dzūkija region. There are around 50 permanent inhabitants and another dozen or so who stay for the summer, plus weekend visitors.1 The village is in the territory of Dzūkijos National Park which was established in order to protect the landscape as well as natural and cultural monuments of the region.

  • Critical Ethnography for School and Community
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Federation ResearchOnline CRITICAL ETHNOGRAPHY FOR SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY RENEWAL AROUND SOCIAL CLASS DIFFERENCES AFFECTING LEARNING John Smyth, Lawrence Angus, Barry Down, Peter McInerney Understanding and exploring complex and protracted social questions requires sophisticated investigative approaches. In this article we intend looking at a research approach capable of providing a better understanding of what is going on in schools, students and communities in “exceptionally challenging contexts” (Harris et al., 2006)—code for schools and communities that have as a result of wider social forces, been historically placed in situations of disadvantage. Ball (2006) summarized neatly the urgent necessity for research approaches that are theoretically tuned into being able to explore and explain what Bourdieu, Chamboredon & Passeron (1991) describe as a world that is “complicated, confused, impure [and] uncertain” (p. 259). Ball’s (2006) claim is for a research approach with the “conceptual robustness” to move us beyond the moribund situation we currently find ourselves in. As he put it: “Much of what passes for educational research is hasty, presumptive, and immodest” (p.9). What is desperately needed are theoretically adroit research approaches capable of “challenging conservative orthodoxies and closure, parsimony, and simplicity”, that retain “some sense of the obduracy and complexity of the social”, and that don’t continually “overestimate our grasp on the social world and underestimate our role in its management” (p. 9). Our particular interest here is in research orientations that are up to the task of uncovering what we know to be something extremely complex and controversial going on in schools, namely how it is that schools work in ways in which “class is achieved and maintained and enacted rather than something that just is! (Ball, 2006, p.

  • GO VIRAL by FELICIA HARRIS
    HASHTAG INTERVENTION: HOW #BLACKGIRLSRUN IS MAKING “HEALTHY” GO VIRAL by FELICIA HARRIS (Under the Direction of Elli Roushanzamir) ABSTRACT In 2009, Toni Carey and Ashley Hicks created Black Girls RUN! (BGR), a blog turned national running organization created to help tackle the growing obesity epidemic in the Black community. In recent years, BGR has proven to be an important cultural, social, and health phenomenon inspiring more than 100,000 women to hit the pavement. This dissertation explores the influence and appeal of BGR with various approaches, including a critical textual analysis of 1,062 Instagram posts tagged #blackgirlsrun. That analysis is combined with a broad cultural contextualization supported by ten qualitative interviews, participant observation, and auto-ethnography. Findings show that the daily use of #blackgirlsrun on social media has spurred a national dialogue on Black women’s health issues and also generated a virtual health community where women can seek out information and support that spans across traditional barriers of distance and time. The various cultural and social practices occurring within the stream of #blackgirlsrun reinforce the role of evolving communication technology in community formation. The viral nature of the group’s message demonstrates the importance of cultural relevance in promoting health and empowering target audience members to adopt new behaviors. These findings suggest that Black Girls RUN! and the social media hashtag, #blackgirlsrun, have significant implications for the fields

  • Netnography: the Marketer's Secret Weapon
    Netnography: The Marketer’s Secret Weapon How Social Media Understanding Drives Innovation By Robert V. Kozinets, BBA, MBA. Ph.D. MARCH 201 0 Executive Summary Marketers in today’s competitive world need an edge. This paper offers two of them. First, it tells marketers to consider social media not just as a marketing tool, but as a way to continuously build high-level consumer insight. Second, it offers a rigorous method based in anthropology for building social media data into applied cultural insights. That method is called netnography. In netnography, online interactions are valued as a cultural reflection that yields deep human understanding. Like in person ethnography, netnography is naturalistic, immersive, descriptive, multi-method, adaptable, and focused on context. Used to inform consumer insight, netnography is less intrusive than ethnography or focus groups, and more naturalistic than surveys, quantitative models, and focus groups. Netnography fits well in the front-end stages of innovation, and in the discovery phases of marketing and brand management. Netnography follows six overlapping steps: 1. Research planning 2. Entrée 3. Data collection 4. Interpretation 5. Ensuring ethical standards 6. Research representation A short illustration of a computationally assisted netnographic approach to a brand study of Listerine is provided. It demonstrates how insights can be used to inform marketing activities including brand perceptions, brand positioning and repositioning, segmentation studies, new product development and innovation, trend identification, new service models for co-creation of value, social media usage and opportunities for marketing campaign activation. By leveraging the power of netnography, marketers can make better business decisions, giving companies a unique competitive advantage.
