    NOW ADDED TO THE DEVELOPING LIST ABOVE

    To add another title – I think Holliday’s article “The value of reconstruction in revealing hidden or counter cultures” – is another valuable resource in reflexivity discussion. It is a demanding but fascinating text. One fragment in particular dazzled me and left me speechless (a rare treat ;-))) with wonder:

    “…It is by trying reflxively to understand what happens when, as an inevitable consequence of being there, she disturbs the surface of the culture she is investigating, that the researcher is in a position to dig deeper and reveal the hidden and the counter..” (278). Apart from the sheer structural and cognitive beauty of this sentence, the idea that a researcher can disturb the surface of “the researched” in a constructive and productive way is inspiring.

    I found this article very interesting because it talks about reflexivity during the doctoral experience:

    Mauthner, N & Doucet A (2003)’Reflexive Accounts and Accounts of Reflexivity in Qualitative Data Analysis’ Sociology 2003; 37; 413 http://soc.sagepub.com/cgi/content/abstract/37/3/413

    Thanks Made, I have now added it to the above Bibliography. Richard
