Qualitative research is a paradigm that embraces the uncertainty of everyday life, broadly conceived. Variables such as race, class, and gender are such an intricate part of human life they can never be isolated, so the research used to study lived experiences must take into account social identities such as race and gender. Introduction to Intersectional Qualitative Research makes those identities of the researcher and the participant central to the task of qualitative study. This book will serve as a guide to teach ways of thinking, being, and doing that will shape a student's journey to becoming a qualitative researcher. Following the progression of the research process, this book will integrate the basics of qualitative research with intersectional issues that are crucial to take into account at every step of the research process. Each chapter will include an opening vignette of real stories from both novice and expert researchers showing struggles and successes in qualitative research. Exercises along the way will help students learn the basics of qualitative research while simultaneously interrogating their positions and identities. The book concludes with the writing of a research proposal, with sections on writing up your complete research for dissemination. -- Provided by publisher
