Recenzii
This stimulative book will make its readers think anew about the pitfalls, profits, and promise of comparison in ethnography.
An exciting and much needed volume, Beyond the Case is the first major work in decades to spot-light comparative ethnography and the wide-ranging pluralistic developments over time. Chapter contributors-both the legendary and the new generations-pass on insights,techniques, methods, and logics of various approaches. Both beginners and experiencedethnographers will be inspired by the theoretical potential of comparative casing
An essential and usable volume for reconnecting today the ethnographic case study to the historic ambitions for it in designs of broad scale comparison.
Perhaps the hottest topic in contemporary ethnographic research is the possibility, the value, and the drawbacks of comparative ethnography. In Beyond the Case, Corey Abramson and Neil Gong and their well-chosen authors provide a diverse set of explanations for how and when comparative ethnographies advance description, theory, and policy analysis. This is a book that will stand the methodological test of time and every field researcher will wish to consider its arguments for their own projects and for those of their students.

Notă biografică
Corey M. Abramson is Associate Professor of Sociology at University of Arizona. His research uses a combination of quantitative, qualitative and hybrid methods to understand how persistent social inequalities structure everyday life and are reproduced over time. His recent comparative ethnography on this topic is The End Game: How Inequality Shapes Our Final Years. The End Game has been awarded the 2016 Outstanding Publication Award by the American Sociological Association Section (ASA) on Aging and the Life Course, selected for an Author Meets Critic Session at ASA, and featured in national media outlets including The New York Times and The Atlantic. Abramsons current methodological works, including recent pieces in Sociological Methodology and Ethnography, focus on integrating computational techniques to improve the scalability, replicability, and transparency of large multi-site ethnographic projects conducted in accordance with realist principles.Neil Gong is Assistant Professor of Sociology at the University of California, San Diego, and currently a Junior Fellow at the University of Michigan Society of Fellows. His research uses diverse empirical cases to study power and social control in modernity, with a specific focus on understanding liberal social order. Neils forthcoming book project Mind and Matter: Madness and Inequality in Los Angeles is a comparative ethnography of public safety net and elite private psychiatric services in community settings. He has previously researched a no-rules libertarian fight club, and will next study the construction of free speech in everyday life. His articles have appeared in Social Problems, Theory and Society, and Ethnography.
