Section 101 – Narrative Analysis, Oral Histories, Focus Groups:
Approaches to Identity and Social Problems. (3 credits).
This course is designed to prepare participants to study emergent
social identities and social problems in collaboration with scholars
from Estonia, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan. In the course we will explore
issues of data-gathering and analysis in readings, class discussion, and practical exercises. Beginning with the topic of oral histories, we will proceed to narrative analysis, and end on the topic of
focus groups. The format will allow for discussion of theoretical
and empirical aspects of the assigned readings, designs for on-site
investigations, and time to develop mock interview and other activities.
