ETHNOGRAPHY AND QUALITATIVE RESEARCH CONFERENCE
5th Edition
Bergamo (Italy), June 5-7, 2014
The conference is organized by the <http://www.unibg.it/%E2%80%8E> University of Bergamo, the journal
<http://www.mulino.it/edizioni/riviste/issn/1973-3194> Etnografia e Ricerca Qualitativa and the publisher <http://www.mulino.it/> il Mulino.
The conference is an opportunity for meeting, discussion and debate for several generations of researchers in the social sciences using an
ethnographic approach to the study of social phenomena. Researchers from across the disciplines of sociology, anthropology, political sciences, arts
& humanities, education, social work, geography, cultural studies, gender studies are invited to present their research aims, results and findings.
All other disciplines where ethnography enhances public understanding of the way groups and individuals interact and live are welcome as well.
We share a broad view of ethnographic research, intended to study and research the processes, implications, and meanings of social life and
culture in groups, organizations, institutions across diverse social spaces and settings. Papers and presentations can be based on a variety of
qualitative methods, including but not limited to field observation, in-depth interviews, focus group, autoethnography, visual ethnography, and
other forms of qualitative research and allied techniques.
The format of the 5th edition is organized in sessions of 3 hours each, with a maximum of 5 paper presentations per session. The aim is to leave as much room as possible for open discussion. The workshop sessions are listed <http://www.etnografiaricercaqualitativa.it/?p=1> here. You can download the CFP <http://www.etnografiaricercaqualitativa.it/?attachment_id=290> here.
We encourage authors to submit empirical contributions that are theoretically informed and methodologically sounded.

research centers in Italy and abroad

· encourage PhD students at different stage of their research career to share and present their preliminary findings and their fieldwork
experience
· welcome graduate and under-graduate students as audience to the conference and active participants in the discussion.
