Definition(s)

  • Definition An approach or style within social research that focuses on specific elements, individuals, events, entities and situations, documents and works of culture or of art and concentrates on what is particular to these. This differs from research that highlights regularities and repeatable elements of form or behaviour as part of larger processes or patterns concerned with general laws and theories.
