Abstract

This two-part webinar series features Dr. Henry H. Brownstein and focuses on the use of qualitative research to inform criminal justice policy. Dr. Brownstein is a Distinguished Research Professor in the Department of Sociology and Anthropology of the Eberly College of Arts and Sciences at West Virginia University. Part 2: Qualitative Methods to Inform Criminal Justice Policy and Practice To contribute to public policy and practice, researchers must participate in what can be called a marketplace of claims where they compete and collaborate with advocates representing a variety of interests, politicians, government officials, practitioners, and even other researchers. This session will include a presentation and discussion of how qualitative research can inform criminal justice policy and practice. Examples will be presented from earlier qualitative studies that have provided information to policymakers and practitioners.
