Direct Observation and Ethnography
Résumé
Direct observation or ethnography is a qualitative method that consists in directly observing the social situation under study-for example, the implementation of a public policy-implying a physical presence of the researcher in the situation at hand. It is a demanding method in terms of the commitment it requires (long-term physical presence in the field, systematic note-taking). It is particularly useful to account for the reality of practices and interactions, at a distance from official discourse.
