Learning How to Ask
Author: Charles L. Briggs
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521311137
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 180
Book Description
Interviews are ubiquitous in modern society, and they play a crucial role in social scientific research. But, as Charles Briggs convincingly argues in this book, received interviewing techniques rest on fundamental misapprehensions about the nature both of the interview as a communicative event, and of the nature of the data that it produces. Furthermore, interviewers rarely examine the compatibility of interviews as a means of acquiring information to one another. These oversights often blind interviewers to ensuing errors of interpretation, as well as to the limitations of the interview as a means of acquiring data. To conflict these problems, Professor Briggs presents an analysis of the 'communicative blunders' that he himself committed in conducting research interviews among Spanish-speakers in northern New Mexico. By focusing on these errors and exploring how they may be avoided, he is able to propose new techniques for designing, implementing, and analyzing interview-based research. These rest on identifying the subjects' resources for conveying information, and the relative compatibility of the shared rules and understandings that underlie their strategies with those associated with interviews. Critical of existing paradigms of interviewing, which he sees as deriving from Western 'folk' theories of reality and communication, Briggs shows that the development of more sophisticated interviewing methodologies requires further research into interviewing itself. Briggs's conclusions provide a basis for the reexamination of current uses of interviews in a wide range of contexts - from social science research to job applications, welfare and health care delivery, criminal and legal investigations, journalism and broadcasting, and other areas of everyday life. His book will appeal to linguists, sociologists, anthropologists, historians, psychologists, as well as other readers whose research or professional activities depend on the use of interviews.

Village Dependence on Migratory Labor in the Upper Rio Grande Area (Classic Reprint)

Pages : 118
Book Description
Excerpt from Village Dependence on Migratory Labor in the Upper Rio Grande Area Wagework first became a factor in the livelihood of the spanish-american village population of the Upper Rio Grande in about 1880. Prior to that time the oeoole of the villages had been entirely dependent upon limited agricultural resources, principally the small catches of irrigated lands in the villages and the range lands immediately surrounding them, The building of the railroads in the 18805 orovided the first significant opportunity for employment for the village oonulation. The subsequent introduction and expansion of mining, lumbering and other non - evricultural activities in the area afforded a growing market for the surplus labor of the villages. From 1880 on, dependence upon wagework steadily increased, the bulk of the village population deriving its livelihood from.the combination of irrigated land, range livestock, and seasonal wagework. The local custom.of bequeathing land equally among all the children and the relatively infrequent occurrence of permanent migration out of the area contributed to the increasing denendence upon wagework. The monosolization of the greater part of the range lands by large commercial onerators, restrictions on the use of National Forest lands, and the progressive deuletion through over-use of the small part of the range lands of the area avail able to the village population effectively blocked what might.
