Summary

Working Methodexplores the theory, method, and politics of contemporary social research. Through ethnographic and qualitative study, noted scholars Lois Weis and Michelle Fine investigate communities under siege and document both the costs of oppression and the strengths of endurance that circulate among the young, poor, and working-class in America. They provide an important model for negotiating the complexities involved in this type of research and give thoughtful consideration to the various strategies and tools available to social researchers
