About The Book

<p><em>An Autoethnography of Becoming a Qualitative Researcher</em> chronicles Trude Klevan's personal experiences of her doctoral journey with Alec Grant as an external academic resource and friend and her subsequent entry into the neoliberal higher education environment. It gives a personal and intimate view of what it's like to become an academic. </p><p>This book is constructed as an extended dialogue which frequently utilizes email exchanges as data. Firmly grounded in the epistemic resource of friendship it tells the story of the authors’ symbiotic academic growth around their critical understanding and knowledge of qualitative inquiry and the purposes of such knowledge. The tale told is of the unfolding of a close and mutually beneficial relationship entangled within sometimes facilitative sometimes problematic environmental contexts. It uses these experiences to describe explore and critically interrogate some underlying themes of the philosophies politics and practices of qualitative inquiry and of higher education. Disrupting conventional academic norms through their work friendship and correspondence Trude and Alec offer a critical and epistemological view of what it's like to become a qualitative researcher and how we can do things differently in higher education. </p><p>This book is suitable for all researchers and students their supervisors mentors and teachers and academics of qualitative research and autoethnography and those interested in critiques of higher education. </p>
