Policy as Practice: Toward a Comparative Sociocultural Analysis of Educational Policy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781567505177)

This volume brings together scholars working the relatively new terrain of ethnographic policy studies to debate and provisionally chart the methodological and theoretical parameters of such a project. The opening section on theory will survey the conceptual antecedents of qualitative policy studies, citing the relevant literature and laying out an agenda for research. The section on methods will consist of accounts of innovative field experiences and analytic approaches that can illuminate the new field. The final section on experiences will extend the reflections in the methods section with concrete case studies.
