Some operating concepts/contrasts
- More ideas - tools for thinking:
- Critique and Problematization
- Explanation/understanding :: Science/humanities :: experimental method/interpretive strategy :: nomothetic/idiographic :: law/meaning
- Inductive vs. deductive (theory/method)
- Networks, social and semantic (what is a network? what is a social network?) and Social Network Analysis for Music Studies.
- S-nets: interleaving social (intersubjective) network, semantic (symbolic) network (cf: society and culture). (I thought I'd come up with this idea when I discovered a whole field of social network analysis called "Socio-semantic network analysis")
- Society and culture intertwined as an (increasingly global) S-Net. Fieldwork as repositioning of the self within S-Nets.
- Phenomenology and Hermeneutics as tools of understanding within this network.
- Degree of network immersion (time, space, language, life)
- Agency vs. Structure , or Lifeworld vs. System (both representable as networks)
- Rapport as key element of the positioning (and network links)
- Truth : between the objectivistic and the solipsistic
- Units of social analysis ("community", "culture", "city", "scene"...)
- Problem of boundaries: Culture areas as a partition of humanity into non-overlapping sets (e.g. eHRAF or Global Jukebox vs. social identity as set of overlapping circles representing affiliations
- Ethnography: description vs. grounded theory; localized vs. comparative/multisited; linguistic vs. multimediated (ethnomedia?)
- Wide range of methods available (browse Sage research methods map (and many other valuable materials on their site)
- Culture as self-observing (E.g. El Mastaba (http://www.el-mastaba.org/); fieldworker as "second order observer", the "observer observing observation" (Luhmann system theory)
