Abstract

Im Gespräch mit Mechthild KIEGELMANN spricht Joseph MAXWELL über seinen akademischen Werdegang. Er beschreibt biografische Meilensteine wie Verunsicherung im Forschungsfeld als junger Anthropologe, die Arbeit als Forscher im Bereich Medizindidaktik, die Lehrtätigkeit an der Harvard Universität und seine Berufung an die George Mason Universität. Dort war er 20 Jahre lang tätig. Er stellt wichtige Grundgedanken seiner Arbeit vor wie sein Designmodell, den realist approach oder die Diskussion um Validität in der qualitativen Forschung, einschließlich der Frage der Generalisierung. MAXWELL berichtet von wichtigen Kolleg*innen und kommentiert überwundene Konflikte zwischen quantitativen und qualitativen Positionen. Lesende erhalten einen Einblick in seine Leidenschaft für die Philosophie. Seine Bescheidenheit und sein Engagement für die Lehre werden deutlich.
