Insider/Outsider Team Research (Qualitative Research Methods)

By Jean M. Bartunek and Meryl Reis Louis

Book Overview

The joint relationships between outside researchers and the people inside the setting being researched are examined in Insider/Outsider Team Research. Jean M. Bartunek and Meryl Reis Louis consider not only the relationship between insider and outsider but also the implications for the quality of knowledge gained from such research. The book begins with a consideration of the theoretical bases of insider/outsider research, provides a primer on conducting such research, and contains an extended example of insider/outsider collaboration. Finally, the authors examine the practical and ethical challenges inherent to this sort of research. Insider/Outsider Team Research will be an invaluable guide to the organizational researcher.
