Description

Explore the inner workings of social science through The Body of Knowledge by Routledge. This book provides a close-up view of researchers as they engage in fieldwork, professional discussions, and the writing process. By using an ethnographic approach rooted in ethnomethodology and conversation analysis, the text offers a praxeological analysis of social inquiry as it happens in real-time. Readers gain access to the seen but unnoticed structures of knowledge work. The author examines analytical practices such as observation, shop talk, and conceptualization through experiential terms. This makes these processes available for empirical analysis, offering a unique perspective on how researchers build knowledge. It is a valuable resource for those studying the practical side of anthropology and sociology, moving beyond traditional ethnographic studies to look at the actual practice of research in situ.
