McLeod (education, U. of Melbourne) and Thomson (social research, Open U., UK) present a guide to qualitative methodologies that investigate processes of personal, generational, and historical change. The text features methods that explore temporality and the dynamic relations between past, present, and future. Through case studies, the authors review six methodological traditions: memory-work, oral/life history, qualitative longitudinal research, ethnography, intergenerational and follow-up studies. They show how such approaches are used in research projects and discuss the practical, theoretical, and ethical challenges they pose. For researchers and graduate students in the social sciences, particularly those working in gender, youth, family and community studies, education, health, and qualitative methods, who are interested in understanding and researching social change.
