Preferred term

ethnography  

Definition

  • Ethnography is a term that describes a broad range of research activities, including both the process of intensive field research and the textual product representing the results. Although scholars and practitioners debate the nuances of what constitutes the method of ethnography, a hallmark of ethnographic research is long-term fieldwork within a particular environment, setting, or group of people.
