>Over the past decades, qualitative research has repositioned itself 
>within the discipline of sociology. Qualitative methods have 
>succeeded in overcoming their marginalization, and it can even be 
>claimed that qualitative research has attained a privileged 
>position. Today, a large variety of qualitative methods are used in 
>a broad range of research areas. The growth and success of 
>qualitative research deliver new challenges as well as new 
>opportunities. Consequently, the mid-term conference of the ESA 
>Research Network 20 focuses on vital questions related to the future 
>of qualitative methods in European sociology as well as neighboring 
>disciplines. The discussion includes questions concerning 
>methodological innovations and the contributions of qualitative 
>methods to both substantive areas of research and sociological 
>theory. The goal is to further establish and promote qualitative 
>methods within an emerging European research realm while fostering 
>exchange with researchers and scholarly networks in other world regions.

>How can qualitative methods respond to the challenges of an emerging 
>European research realm? Is there a uniquely European qualitative
