Qualitative Interviews: Studying Network Narratives

Abstract

The present chapter will discuss the strengths and limitations of qualitative interviews in comparison to other methods used when studying governance networks. We will do it on the basis of the 65 interviews that we, in the framework of the labour market policy pilot study, conducted in six different research settings on local and national levels.

We are grateful for the constructive feedback given by the anonymous referee as well as by members of the research team at the Centre for Democratic Governance at Roskilde University.
