The Handbook of Reconfiguring Interpretation in (Post) Qualitative Research addresses different roles, functions, and reconfigurations of interpretation in qualitative and postqualitative research.

This book connects interpretation to its histories while revisioning and reconfiguring what the future of interpretation and interpretive practices could be like and how different interpretations can shape qualitative and postqualitative relationalities, discourses, affects, and materialities. It addresses different roles, functions, and reconfigurations of interpretation in qualitative and postqualitative research. What happens to interpretation when it is put into different theoretical frames including postmodernism, posthumanism, postcolonialism? What has changed and how do different epistemological and ontological spaces offer different insights about interpretation and shape diverse uses for interpretation? How does interpretation function and what does it produce during these rapidly shifting cultural and political times?

This handbook can be used as a main text for introduction to qualitative research courses, advanced courses focusing on interpretation, post qualitative research practices, or social science methodologies. It could also be used as a supplementary textbook for qualitative methods courses including qualitative design, representation, and (post)practices courses.
