How Can Critique of Critique Create Possibilities for Critical Qualitative Inquiry
This commentary is based on a presentation given at the annual meeting of the Coalition for Critical Qualitative Research at the 19th International Congress of Qualitative Inquiry. The focus of the presentation was to address the theme: “ What are your conceptualisations of reactions to critique of critiques, and possibilities for, critical qualitative inquiry?” The aim was to prompt the participants to critically reflect on the idea of critique,…
Feedback Loops
The following texts, by three critical session leaders, provide perhaps a conclusion to the special issue articles, but more importantly, may serve as “feedback loops” for becomings-with future present critical qualitative inquiries, for more just becomings that we have not thought. We become-with a new scholar who shares the important issues of her life as a beginning researcher, and we become-with two more senior researchers who share their cri…

Maintaining the Integrity of Qualitatively Driven Mixed Methods
Severing a mixed method study into several publications is antithetical to the purpose and principles of mixed method designs. In this editorial, I explore the ramifications of such “splitting”
The Importance of Telling About Our Qualitative Inquiry
Telling about our qualitative inquiry in public spheres has a whole new meaning in a neoliberal-derived research marketplace. It is also about being seen and heard in that competitive marketplace to accrue the market currency that different types of public telling differentially provide. This can result in an "overadaptive" telling of a qualitative inquiry that itself has been overadapted to meet other agendas. Three snapshots of different types …
Interfaces between Social Media and Qualitative Inquiry in Neoliberal Contexts
"Getting Attention" Creating and Presenting the Visible, Online, Researcher Self
Using the idea of a digitally based, constructed, and virtual researcher self, we explore ways in which social media, social network sites, and social networking present researcher self(ves) and research product(s) to a range of interested others. We argue that in a climate where visibility of, and attention for, both research and researchers is paramount, we are seeing the resilience and morphing of metrics and all they represent into new and di…
Qualitative Inquiry and the Research Marketplace
In a crowded, competitive, research marketplace, association with the latest high-status brands and must-have products is crucial. Have we, and are we, adapting our qualitative inquiry to be associated with these leading brands and products? Addressing this requires adding some connections (+s) to our thinking about our qualitative inquiry and its interfaces with the research marketplace, such as those between funding, methods, publications, prom…
Dynamic Reflexivity in Action
Dynamic reflexivity is central to enabling flexible and emergent qualitatively driven inductive mixed-method and multiple methods research designs. Yet too often, such reflexivity, and how it is used at various points of a study, is absent when we write our research reports. Instead, reports of mixed-method and multiple methods research focus on what was done rather than how it came to be done. This article seeks to redress this absence of emphas…
Introducing Qualitatively-Driven Mixed-Method Designs
Making Room for Qualitatively-Driven Mixed-Method Research
Points of Hesitation
Qualitative health research has long had as one of its mantras a commitment to, and focus on, human rights and social justice. However over time, it is possible that such centrality can have the effect of creating a sense of the familiar, and with such familiarity assumptions about how human rights and social justice are being advanced through the process of qualitative inquiry. A sense of comfort or even complacency can emerge that may sometimes…
Moving on
In the worlds inhabited by qualitative inquirers working in health-related areas, health care, evidence, qualitative research, and qualitative researchers are four areas of potential tension and, at times, collision. These areas, or at least aspects of them, are constantly reinvented and realigned as the effects of such encounters are navigated. This article is about some of these close encounters, what we might learn from them, and how we might …
Data Expressions or Expressing Data
A Fine Line
Proponents of qualitative inquiry are both positioned, and in turn position themselves, in the wake of the effects of the politics of evidence. Such positioning is thus a dynamic process. It is not simply imposed or determined by others. Qualitative researchers are both worked on by, and in turn work on, understandings of research and research evidence. One potentially hidden or unexplored outworking of such a dynamic is the possible rise within …
Researching Collaboratively
Often discussions about collaborative research, and collaboration generally, begin at the point of how to collaborate, who to collaborate with, and what to collaborate about. Rarely do they include equally important questions of why we are having discussions about collaboration, where such an impetus and emphasis is coming from, and how it connects to the contemporary political research context. In a recent editorial in Qualitative Health Researc…
Healthism
Health care is a space occupied, shaped, and colonized by a variety of players at a variety of times. Such players include health practitioners of different kinds; individuals referred to variously and even simultaneously as consumers/patients/clients/customers, depending on who is doing the speaking and in what contexts; families and significant others; managers; accountants; lawyers; educators; and researchers, as well as governments both local…
Governing the contagious body
Genital herpes is a prevalent sexually transmitted viral infection. While genital herpes is not life-threatening, it can cause physical discomfort and psychosocial difficulties, and may increase the risk of contracting HIV. Given that genital herpes cannot be cured, both the condition itself, and the possibility of passing it on to others, becomes a part of the everyday reality of those individuals diagnosed with genital herpes. In this article w…
Negotiating delicately
This paper uses a conversation between a health professional and client to explore what such conversations may reveal about some of the assumptions that underpin ideas about health and health care provision. In particular, the analysis focuses on the way in which health care professionals and their clients are positioned, and position themselves, when communicating about health. The delicate, and sometimes not so delicate, negotiation that occurs…
Avoiding death
The aim of this paper is to explore how the avoidance of death preoccupies the focus of most health professionals, including policy makers, in the western world, and the implications of this for the lives of people with chronic diseases. Avoiding death has become the ultimate challenge in the provision of contemporary healthcare. An implication of this way of thinking for people with chronic diseases is that their chronic disease is then position…
Qualitative Inquiry, Ethics, and Politics of Evidence
Just as qualitative research is "endlessly creative and interpretative," qualitative researchers find themselves in the position of having to be endlessly creative and interpretive with respect to the various spaces they move in and out of as they conceptualize, conduct, write, and report their research. Some of these spaces are shaped by new and mutated forms of "old" regimes of truth based in audit culture, others by refracted forms of methodol…
From retirement village to residential aged care
The majority of older Australians, some of whom live in retirement villages, wish to remain living in their own home, receiving care in the community when their health and/or other circumstances change. Current statistics show that 3.7% of people aged 65 years and over live in a retirement village in Australia. However, residential aged care will still be required for some highly dependent members of the older population. This qualitative Austral…
At the Margins? Discourse Analysis and Qualitative Research
Discourse analysis is a qualitative research approach that offers the potential to challenge our thinking about aspects of the reality of health and health care practice. In this article, the author explores one approach to discourse analysis and examines how it offers possibilities for different ways of viewing health and health care practices. She concludes by raising questions as to whether discourse analysis is at the margins of qualitative r…

What's in a Number? Issues in Providing Evidence of Impact and Quality of Research(ers)
One of the challenges facing qualitative researchers in a climate in which audit culture has permeated many facets of the institutions in which they research is how to establish the impact and quality of their research. When examining track records, granting institutions place significant emphasis on publication performance. Although the quality and impact of publications have traditionally been assessed by peer review, there is currently a globa…
(Con)textualizing Toxic Shock Syndrome
Societal understandings of health risk, and attitudes towards health and illness, are influenced and shaped by the ways in which print-based media, including popular magazines, represent health issues. The study reported here explores the way in which a relatively new health phenomenon, Toxic Shock Syndrome, has been represented in selected articles in Australian print-based media between 1979 and 1995. By exploring the discourses framing the dis…

Influencing Practice or Simply Esoteric? Researching Health Care Using Postmodern Approaches
Increasingly, contemporary health literature has begun to explore the potential of postmodern approaches to enable new and different analyses of health care practice. Paradoxically, as the use of postmodern approaches has increased, so has the lack of clarity with respect to what constitutes a postmodern approach. Challenges to postmodern approaches to research have come from those who argue that they contribute nothing to either the understandin…

The Power of Normalisation
Foucault's analysis provides social and political insights into the way that contemporary health care practices in Australia have been, and are being, constructed. His notion of discourse provides a useful starting point to analyse the taken‐for‐granted nature of reality that is so hegemonic in many health care practices. An analysis of discourse reveals the panoptic tendencies inherent in the Australian health care system. The notion of panoptic…

The making of health
This introduction to the Tenth Anniversary Issue surveys articles that have been published in health: since its launch. Reviewing the original aims of the journal, the editors discuss some of the main issues that authors have raised, both about health and illness. Focusing upon articles that have been published in this particular journal, we discuss the way that new medical technologies - particularly global ones - have shaped ideas about disease…
Older People and Acute Care
Older people are increasingly becoming the core business of the acute care setting. The acute care setting is more than a physical location where older people receive health care. It is a place that organizes both social space and social relations, thereby positioning older people and those who care for them in particular ways in that place. This article draws on the findings of two studies highlighting aspects of the interface of older people wi…
Health Risk Analysis and Sociomedical Technologies of the Self
In October 1994 the then Australian Federal Minister for Health, Dr. Carmen Lawrence, announced that Medicare, the Australian universal national healthcare fund was considering introducing Healthtrac a computerised health promotion program. The change of government in 1995 put paid to this plan, however, lifestyle based health promotion programs, including computerised programs, are an increasing trend in contemporary health care. Research from t…

This exploratory, descriptive study examined the search and selection process for an aged care facility following discharge of a family member from an acute setting. Few studies have examined this process and its effects on families. Individuals from 25 families where a family member had been recently admitted to an aged care facility following discharge from an acute setting were interviewed. This article reports participants' perceptions of the…

Taking a View
Qualitative approaches to research have gained increased prominence in many contemporary health-related disciplinary fields. In such an era of increasing interest and recognition of the opportunities afforded by these approaches, it is easy to lose sight of the fact that any research approach encodes assumptions and values about the social world. Research perspectives have organizing effects on both the material gathered in research studies and o…

Advancing What? Qualitative Research, Scholarship, and the Research Imperative
In this keynote address, the author explores the role that scholarship plays in shaping and advancing qualitative research. The focus is on the dynamic relationship that exists between scholarship, qualitative research, qualitative researchers, and the research imperatives that form part of the context in which they operate. Neither scholarship nor qualitative research exists in a contextual vacuum. Changing thoughts and emphases in educational i…
