{"product_id":"the-paradigm-dialog-9780803938236","title":"The Paradigm Dialog","description":"Is scientific positivism, long the reigning paradigm for research in the social sciences, the  best way′ to conduct social research? This is the central question examined in \u003cb\u003eThe Paradigm Dialog\u003c\/b\u003e. Recently three key challenges have appeared - positivism, critical theory and constructivism. All three offer researchers new methodological approaches and all three present fundamental questions that must be addressed. Can research be conducted between paradigms? Are they equally useful in answering questions of applied research? What constitutes good or ethical research in each? These and other significant questions are examined by a multidisciplinary group of leading figures in qualitative research.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Egon Guba\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sage Publications, Inc\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/1990\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 424\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.56w x 1.13d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780803938236\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eGuba, Egon:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e(Retired) \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sage Publications, Inc","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40139366498419,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_0331d3ac-fc69-4405-a29e-cbd051c1402f.jpg?v=1654434794","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/the-paradigm-dialog-9780803938236","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
