Qualitative social and interactional researchQualitative social and interactional research
The (inter-)action theoretical, twofold understanding of literature, film, and media (as well as media teaching) carries the potential to expand literature and culture studies’ theoretical horizon as well as its methodological repertoire. It thus lends itself to building interdisciplinary collaborations with reconstructive social and psychological studies in which innovative multi-method research settings may be developed.
