Blending researcher and subject roles, autoethnographers use analytical strategies to explore the social and cultural contexts of meaningful life experiences and their implications for the present. Social issues are described from the inside out, producing narratives that reflect the messy, experiential encounters of everyday life. This collection illustrates the value of autoethnography as an inquiry approach for social work practice. Covering such topics as international adoption, cross-dressing, divorce, cultural competence, life-threatening illness, and transformative change, contributors showcase the ambiguities, doubts, contradictions, insights, tensions, and epiphanies that accompany their experiences. This anthology provides a readable and unique example of an exciting new trend in qualitative research. 606 $aAutobiography 606 $aEthnosociology 606 $aNarrative inquiry (Research method) 606 $aSocial service -- Practice 606 $aSocial service -- Research 606 $aSocial workers 615 4$aAutobiography. 615 4$aEthnosociology. 615 4$aNarrative inquiry (Research method). 615 4$aSocial service -- Practice. 615 4$aSocial service -- Research. 615 4$aSocial workers. 676 $a361.301 702 $aWitkin$b Stanley 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786559803321 996 $aNarrating social work through autoethnography$93774449 997 $aUNINA
