Does Grounded Theory Needed to be Rediscovered? Review Essay

Journal Title: PRZEGLĄD SOCJOLOGII JAKOŚCIOWEJ - Year 2015, Vol 11, Issue 1

Abstract

The paper provides an overview of the book Rediscovering Grounded Theory (2014) by Barry Gibson and John Hartman on the background of discussions within the grounded theory methodology. Particular attention is devoted to the reconstruction of the “original version” of grounded theory made by the authors and how this methodology is related to sociological imagination. The paper also briefly presents Gibson and Hartman’s discussion on the main assumptions of constructivist grounded theory.
