Grounded Theory

Since their original publication in 1967, Glaser and Strauss disagreed on 'how to do' GT. This split occurred most obviously after Strauss published Qualitative Analysis for Social Scientists (1987). This was followed by a rebuke by Glaser (1992) who set out, chapter by chapter, to highlight the differences in what he argued was original grounded theory and why, according to Glaser, what Strauss had written was not grounded theory in its intended form. This divergence in the GT methodology is a subject of much academic debate.

The following articles and books further outline this:

Grounded Theory (Glaser) - an overview of grounded theory according to Glaser.

Grounded Theory (Strauss) tells about grounded theory in the tradition of Strauss and later of Juliet Corbin .
