New: How to do Educational Ethnography - Edited by Geoffrey Walford

Publications

We publish whole ethnographies that reflect a sociological perspective. Our priority is to support ethnographic research that involves long-term engagement with those studied in order to understand their cultures, to use multiple methods of generating data and to recognise the centrality of the researcher in the research process.

We welcome proposals that illuminate educational practices through empirical methodologies which prioritise the experiences and perspectives of those involved. The subject matter should have international significance in that the narrative and analysis/findings would be relevant to communities in a number of countries.

We welcome substantive proposals that may be the result of recent PhDs and seek to:

• explicate and challenge the effects of educational policies and practices and interrogate and develop theories about educational structures, policies and experiences,
• highlight the agency of educational actors,
• provide accounts of how the everyday practices of those engaged in education are instrumental in social reproduction
