This paper looks at marginalization in two realms: chronic illness and qualitative research. It conceptualizes marginalization through examining stories about experiencing chronic illness. Marginalization means boundaries or barriers, distance or separation, and division or difference. Marginalization assumes a core of enacted rules and measures that frame the social lives and subjective realities of those who do not fit. Being marginalized causes suffering but can transform stigmatized people and qualitative researchers. Qualitative psychologists can embrace the freedom marginalization allows and construct a separate community that ultimately moves inquiry away from established margins. The paper ends with ideas for increasing the transformative power of qualitative research
