Serialising the Research Journey
Case study research rarely unfolds in a neat, linear fashion, yet published accounts often obscure the contingent and iterative nature of inquiry behind polished narratives. We introduce the serialisation sheet as a practical and epistemologically flexible tool for bracketing key episodes as research unfolds. By making interpretive shifts and methodological decisions visible, the tool supports reflexivity, transparency, and rigour without constra…
The intertemporal unfairness of the feed-in tariff scheme in the United Kingdom
Confluent trust, accountability, procedural justice, British credit unions and regulatory reform after the global financial crisis
Purpose The relationship between trust, accountability and procedural justice is studied via research into British credit unions (CUs) following regulatory reform to remedy problems exposed by the 2007–2008 global financial crisis. Design/methodology/approach Interviews at 13 case studies of different types and sizes of credit unions in Glasgow, Scotland, are examined using template analysis and abductive theorizing to understand the effects of d…
Interracial Adoption
A crucial concern regarding the adoption of Indigenous children into “white” families is the separation of the child from her/his Indigenous community and the struggles for the children involved. This paper examines the struggles faced by one Anishinawbe child and his family, the Lees, to come to terms with this dynamic when they adopted him in the early 70s. After the adoption they came to understand themselves as a family that was no longer “wh…
Braiding together student and supervisor aspirations in a struggle to decolonize
In this study, we explore a student-supervisor relationship and the development of relational and reflexive research identities as joint actions towards decolonizing management knowledge and practice. We frame a specific case of PhD supervision through he awa whiria the braided rivers metaphor, which emerges from Māori traditions. This metaphor recognizes a plurality of knowledge streams that can start from different sources, converge, braid and …
The handicap of lists, QROM and the future
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to consider the contribution that this journal has made to the development of qualitative research over the ten years of Qualitative Research in Organizations and Management’s ( QROM ’s) lifetime and its potential to contribute further in the future. Design/methodology/approach – Reflections are made from the author’s standpoint as a longstanding associate editor of QROM and a UK academic in the field of acc…
Collective Trauma as a Personal/Social Concern for Persons within Marginalized Communities
Challenges and Controversies in Management Research
Learning to count
Purpose The purposes of this paper are to explain how the need arose for trade unions to develop accounting systems to monitor learning outcomes and to illuminate how trade unions rose to that challenge. Design/methodology/approach A semi‐structured interview study of the full‐time educational officers of a number of the UK trade unions produced transcripts that were analysed using template analysis and were supplemented by collection of document…
Trade unions learning representatives
The statutory rights given to trade union learning representatives (ULRs) to facilitate and organize learning in the workplace has led to the creation of a new specialized union lay official role. This article investigates how the ULR initiative is facilitating the development of learning partnerships in the workplace. Empirical data is provided from a qualitative study that draws on interviews with full-time trade union officials from a range of…
A researcher's tale
Purpose The paper's purpose is to explore a theoretical and methodological dilemma. Design/methodology/approach Commencing doctoral research, and committed to an orthodox grounded theory approach, a unique story was uncovered which, to do it and the research justice, required an alternative form of representation. Intuition decreed that this should be narrative. However, grounded theory and narrative entail epistemologically and ontologically inc…
Reflections on the use of case studies in the accounting, management and organizational disciplines
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explain the background to the special issue and to provide an introduction to the articles on case studies included in the issue. Design/methodology/approach The paper uses a review of developments in both the qualitative tradition and case studies in management research to provide a backdrop for the articles that are included in the issue. The articles discuss: the merits of unique cases and singular forms…
Introducing strong structuration theory for informing qualitative case studies in organization, management and accounting research
Purpose The aim of this paper is to present a reinforced version of structuration theory, known as strong structuration theory, set out in Stones as a disciplined approach to qualitative case study research in the organization, management and accounting fields. This framework challenges the belief held by certain critics that structuration theory cannot be used in substantive empirical research but is only a sensitising device or analytical tool.…
Case study research and network theory
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to advocate that case study research needs to renew itself and employ its full potential as an innovative theory‐generating methodology in management disciplines; and to propose that a viable strategy for such renewal is to exploit the power of case study research and network theory as supplementary methodologies. Design/methodology/approach The paper is a reflective and synthesising comparative study. Finding…
The “singular view” in management case studies
Purpose – This paper aims to challenge the conventional wisdom in qualitative case study research that the findings of the case depend on the identification of common themes across the statements of multiple case informants (usually, as expressed at interview). Design/methodology/approach – This is a methodological paper that uses a published work to illustrate its arguments. It explores research on the meaning and significance of politically and…

Conflict generation, conflict management and self-organizing capabilities in drought-prone rural communities in north-eastern Nigeria
This article presents a qualitative study of conflict over crucial resources in drought-prone rural communities in north-eastern Nigeria and shows how these conflicts are mitigated to sustain social order. The article argues that, at a time of increased agitation for local control, this study of conflict generation and conflict management presents a model for understanding governance practices and capacity at local levels and shows how they coher…
Exploring Citizenship in Contemporary Community Work Practice
The notion of citizenship as a triangular relationship between civil, political and social rights has received a great deal of attention by social scientists. However, the exploration of the relevance of the notion for community practice is relatively new. Interviews with a non. random sample of community workers in southern Ontario, Canada, explored the meaning of citizenship to the practitioners. The findings suggest that satisfaction of basic …
