Describe the purpose of ethnomethodological and ethnographic research analysis. Make sure to discuss the differences between these two techniques, as well as any comparisons.

What will be an ideal response?


Answers will vary but should touch on the following differences: ethnography-naturalistic, describe the social world as the participants see it, immersive; ethnomethodology-constructivist, describe how the participants create their reality and the social world that they live in, maintain distance between researcher and world being studied. Possible comparison: Both are observational, although ethnographies are immersive and ethnomethodologies maintain more distance between researcher and subject.
