- Summary
- What is evidence in qualitative inquiry and how is it evaluate? Things defined as true or false in research are strongly influenced by social criteria and by the politics of academia. As a challenge to the dominance of conservative science, qualitative researchers are often victimized by these politics, both in the academy and the policy arena.
