Professor Graham Crow, Professor of Sociology and Methodology, delivers his inaugural lecture entitled, "Community Research: A Field Full of Methods".
In this lecture Professor Crow considers the field of community research as one in which a wide range of different research methods have been used. He argues that this methodological diversity - ranging from surveys to ethnographies, from network mapping to the use of photography, from oral histories to policy analyses, and from interviews to archival work - is just one of the strengths of the field.
