‘Foreshadowing’ – ideas for my dissertation

I’ll probably be looking at a piece of work about drug workers, given my interests and resources, ties into social policy. Methods? Probaby ethnographic in some respects, interviews certainly (semi-structured? cf with recent research in Cardiff Prison, Bridgend etc). But what angle? Look at crossover of different frameworks etc, and how are these discourses enacted, made real? Think about epistemology and ontology , voice, settings, motovations and also how I’ll be writing it up – how do I represent the data? Where will ‘I’ be in it?
