Journal Title: PRZEGLĄD SOCJOLOGII JAKOŚCIOWEJ - Year 2007, Vol 3, Issue 2

Abstract

The paper presents new way of qualitative data analysis developed by Adele E. Clarke (2003, 2005) called “situational analysis”. Clarke’s project aims to further and regenerate grounded theory methodology after postmodern turn and shift it toward constructivist epistemology. There were presented main theses of Clarke’s approach in the article: critique of traditional grounded theory, grounded theorizing project using situational maps, social words/arenas maps and positional maps. The author of the article discusses reviewed approach, considering epistemological status of “situation” as a key concept in Clarke’s project, focusing on context instead of actions, introducing nonhuman actants into analysis and the problem of pre- conceptualization.
