摘要
The Strategic Management Journal encourages studies using qualitative empirical methods that investigate important research questions and phenomena in order to generate new insights. Researchers believe that qualitative research often provides a means of identifying generalizable patterns concerning important questions in the field of strategic management. The opportunity is clear?multiple qualitative methods provide more options for research. But the challenge arises because the multiplicity of qualitative methods can also lead to unproductive debates between authors and reviewers, in which the conversation focuses more on preferences for particular forms of qualitative method than on the content of the research.
