FQS Newsletter 12/03
Dear All,
Today I would like to inform you about texts, published in FQS in
December and available online. They are dealing with the use of
"Documents in Social Research," "Analyzing Recorded Interviews: Making
Sense of Oral History," "Public and Private Narratives," "Writing
Hypertext," "Making Decisions About Taking Medicines," and "Research on
Right-wing Extremism."
Additionally, you will find short information from the Graduate School
of Social Sciences, University of Bremen, from the ESA Research Network
"Qualitative Methods," and some Open Access news.
On behalf of the Editorial Staff I would like to thank you for your
interest and support during the four years, working on FQS, and to wish
you a season of health, peace, and prosperity!
Katja Mruck
