This comprehensive Handbook provides interdisciplinary coverage of qualitative inquiry and interpretive research methods in the social sciences. Margarethe Kusenbach and Michaela Pfadenhauer adopt an innovative approach by connecting research practice with conceptual principles and strong theoretical grounding.

Interpretivism is one of the major theoretical frameworks in contemporary social science. In this Handbook, leading experts discuss a range of interpretive research methods and issues, emphasizing the importance of theorizing and self-reflection in qualitative research. Featuring novel and diverse voices in methodological discourse, the Handbook fosters dialogue and showcases various strands, styles, and techniques of interpretive inquiry. The contributing authors examine the history and contexts of interpretive research in various social science disciplines, such as education, criminology, public health, and gender studies. Chapters also explore challenges facing interpretive researchers, such as ethics, writing, and new media and technologies. Moreover, the Handbook portrays the notable contributions of seven outstanding interpretive scholars from different regions.

The Handbook of Interpretive Research Methods in the Social Sciences is a valuable resource for students and academics across the social sciences. It is of particular interest to educators in sociology, science and technology studies, communication, and other fields where researchers are looking for innovative ideas to expand their knowledge base and invigorate their teaching.
