Ethnography: An Anthropological View.

Spindler, George; Spindler, Louise

Educational Horizons, v63 n4 p154-57 Sum 1985

The authors explore the boundaries of ethnography (the use of some model of cultural process in both the gathering and interpretation of data). They define what is studied when one studies "culture," education as cultural transmission, and "good" ethnography as interpretation and cultural translation. (CT)
