Green %J Forum : Qualitative Social Research %D 2011 %I FQS %X Building on G¨¹nter MEY's (2000, para. 2) argument that "reviews should help to promote additional perspectives ¡­ and to open up new scientific discourses," in this essay review of Carol GRBICH's (2007) "Qualitative Data Analysis," we present an approach to reading texts ethnographically that enabled us to uncover how the choices GRBICH makes in positioning readers and in choosing particular ways of representing select qualitative approaches inscribes particular worlds and possibilities for qualitative research. In her text GRBICH argues that authors position readers through the ways in which they report and write about their work. In this review essay we use this argument as a basis to uncover how GRBICH positions readers, researchers, those researched, different qualitative traditions and perspectives as well as herself as an author of the text, to lay a foundation for engaging readers of FQS in a hermeneutic dialogue (KELLY, 2006) about the authoring and reviewing processes and their inter-relationships. Through this dialogue, we seek to develop with readers of FQS a new discourse about the necessity of transparency in the position that authors and reviewers take in reporting/reviewing of research, and in representing the traditions that differ from the author's/reviewer's own tradition(s). Our goal in framing this essay review as a hermeneutical dialogue is to identify previously unexamined issues of how the writing of introductory texts is shaped by the often invisible perspectives of authors, which in turn leads to a particular inscription of what counts as qualitative research. URN: http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0114-fqs1201233 Partiendo del argumento de G¨¹nter MEY (2000, p¨¢rr. 2) que nos dice que "las revisiones deben contribuir a promover perspectivas adicionales ... y abrir nuevos discursos cient¨ªficos", en esta rese a de "Qualitative Data Analysis" de Carol GRBICH (2007) presentamos un enfoque para leer textos entnogr¨¢ficamente que nos permiti¨® descubrir c¨®mo las decisiones que GRBICH hace al posicionar a los lectores y al elegir formas particulares de representar enfoques cualitativos selectos, inscriben mundos particulares y posibilidades de investigaci¨®n cualitativa. En su texto GRBICH argumenta que los autores posicionan al lector a trav¨¦s de las formas en las cuales reportan y escriben sobre su trabajo. En este ensayo utilizamos este argumento como una base para descubrir como BRBICH posiciona a los lectores, investigadores, a los investigados, a diferentes tradiciones y perspectivas cualitativas, as¨ª como a ella misma como autora del %K transparency in reporting research %K positioning %K writing research texts %K ethnographic reading %K logic of inquiry %K languaculture %U http://ojs-test.cedis.fu-berlin.de/fqs-test/index.php/fqs/article/view/1768
