Ethnography for Survival?: A Reply to Woods.

Hammersley, Martyn

British Educational Research Journal, v13 n3 p309-17 Oct 1987

Replying to Woods' analysis of his original critique, Hammersley lists four points of disagreement: (1) what counts as theory development; (2) phases of theory development; (3) the nature of theory testing; and (4) whether theory development and testing is an achievable goal. (GEA)
