Very Important People: Status and Beauty in the Global Party Circuit
Ashley Mears
Ethnographers: how many ethnographies do you foresee undertaking throughout your career? Context: Ashley Mears is on her third (Pricing Beauty and Very Important People). I think Forrest D. Stuart is also on his third (Down Out and Ubder Arrest, Ballad of the Bullet).

Salsa Dancing Into the Social Sciences: Research in an Age of Info-Glut
Kristin Luker
I think this is important to do. There are books we don't like and that's ok and we shouldn't feel guilty about it. I did NOT like "Salsa Dancing into the Social Sciences" by Kristin Luker. A metric tonne of people I know LOVE that book. And THAT IS FINE. https://t.co/br5wWTG99E

The Varieties of Grounded Theory
Antony Bryant
Bryant, A. (2019). The Varieties of Grounded Theory. Los Angeles, London, New Delhi, Singapore, Washington DC, Melbourne: SAGE. Por cierto, quĂ© chistoso que en muchos cĂrculos no se le ponga tanta atenciĂłn al trabajo de Antony Bryant, pero colaborĂł muy cerca de Kathy Charmaz.

Rapid Ethnographic Assessments: A Practical Approach and Toolkit for Collaborative Community Research
Thurka Sangaramoorthy
4) "Rapid Ethnographic Assessments" is an incredible book by Thurka Sangaramoorthy and Karen Kroeger. https://t.co/gX4A3h3NXP I know that there are some people who are averse to REAs (I am not, and I've conducted several) and I think people should learn how to do them properly.

Rapid Ethnographies
Cecilia Vindrola-Padros
9) I almost forgot to include Cecilia Vindrola-Padros' "Rapid Ethnographies", which is a good and handy guide. https://t.co/b1FWoSvxIA 10) Amanda Coffey's Doing Ethnography is also a solid read, part of SAGE's Series "The Qualitative Toolkit" https://t.co/Qlyrer1pUI

The Privatized State
Chiara Cordelli
Privatization (particularly as poorly done as it has been in Great Britain) strips society from the opportunities afforded by democratic governance. Read @chiaracordelli âs excellent book: âThe Privatized Stateâ published by @PrincetonUPress https://t.co/i9pKWqcFgB
