Autoethnography: A Case for the Defence presents a thoughtful and compelling exploration of autoethnography as a research methodology, addressing the growing wave of academic, analytical and ethical critiques that accompany its rising prominence. Rather than simply outlining the foundations and rationale behind autoethnography, this text takes a distinctive stance by advocating for and defending the methodology in response to the evolving discourse around its validity. It provides deeper insight and practical guidance for those interested in pursuing or better understanding qualitative research methods. Grounded in robust research and interwoven with references to influential autoethnographic works, the book establishes a strong scholarly framework, reinforcing the credibility of autoethnography as a valuable methodological tool. Through engaging, accessible prose, the author confronts criticisms head-on, offering clear explanations and vivid examples that underscore autoethnography’s vital role in examining and interpreting complex and broad social phenomena. This book is designed for students, academics and researchers interested in autoethnography, qualitative inquiry and broader research methodologies.
