I am looking for seminal works using the phenomenological approach in social sciences - preferably management, psychology, sociology or anthropology
Chapter 4 (Todres and Holloway) in this book http://www.amazon.co.uk/Qualitative-Methodologies-Health-Social-Research-ebook/dp/B000OI12KU is well worth a read.
Dear Bishakha Majumdar,
You can found an introduction to Phenomenological psychology here: http://www.iep.utm.edu/phen-psy/ Perhaps it is usefull for identifing seminal works/authors.
I guess that the "Journal of Phenomenological Psychology" could be another important source of information for you (http://www.brill.com/journal-phenomenological-psychology)
Best,
Ruben.
I learned the most on phenomenology from professor NIgel King (UK). He has created his own website on this topic of how to analyse data by template analysis:
http://www.hud.ac.uk/hhs/research/template-analysis/
On the side are may useful suggestions for literature and links.
Good luck!
I am on the road at the moment and don't have references to hand but if you want seminal works I suggest you start with anything by Alfred Schutz, some good articles but also his major book 'The Phenomenology of the Social World'. Useful commentators include Natanson and Berger and Luckman (also produced a very influential book on phenomenology in sociology). Smith, Flowers and Larkin put out a book on interpretative phenomenological analysis (the title is quite close to that) that I found very useful. Jonathon Friedman used phenomenology in his earlier anthropological writings (I haven't caught up with what he has done since). I am pretty sure I saw something by Gill in 'Organizatoinal Research Methods" last year.
Hi, I once wrote a phenomenological study of the membership of the British Union of Fascists, which is on ResearchGate at https://www.researchgate.net/publication/229889317_Looking_back_at_fascism_a_phenomenological_analysis_of_BUF_membership%2A. In Sociological Review 32, 1984, pp.742-770.
