Abstract
The qualitative paradigm is at a new stage of development. That is the position of the well-known international journal FQS (Forum: Qualitative Social Research), which started the discussion “Quality of qualitative research”, where it raises topical issues of further development of the field as a kind of “Where is the qualitative paradigm going?”.Taking up this initiative, our journal invited the experts to speak on the block of questions proposed by colleagues, but with reference to the Russian-speaking segment of the field.Well-known leaders in this area – Elena Zdravomyslova, Elena Yarskaya-Smirnova, Elena Omelchenko, Ilya Steinberg – responded to the journal’s proposal. Here we publish their answers to the questions discussed.
