Abstract

A review of the textbook by A.V. Vanke, E.V. Polukhina and A.V. Strelnikova “How to Collect Data in Field Qualitative Research”. The authors of the book describe a joint experience of participation in field research projects, choosing the genre of “how to do” with many examples of field situations, strategies, tools and documents. The problems of access to the field, visual materials collecting, issues of data archiving, and many other topical aspects of research work are reviewed here. The book shows the logic of a field project step by step, from constructing a research design to leaving the field and maintaining connections with it.
Keywords:
qualitative research, data collection methods, access to the field, interview, observation, exploratory reflection
