Description

Ethnography by Anthony Kwame Harrison provides a comprehensive introduction to ethnographic research and writing traditions. The book explores the history, design, conventions, and evaluation standards of ethnography, grounding its practices in anthropological principles such as cultural awareness, thick description, and embodied understanding. Harrison introduces new frameworks for grasping the strategic and improvisational imperatives of ethnography, as well as its experimental conventions in social science and humanistic research reporting. A central concept is ethnographic comportment, an historically informed politics of position that impacts ethnographers' conduct and disposition, serving as a standard for gauging and engaging ethnography throughout the text. This book serves as a primer, writing guide, and assessment handbook, offering readers a thorough introduction to one of the richest traditions of qualitative research.
