Threads of a New Language: A Response to Eisenhart's "On the Subject of Interpretive Reviews."

Meacham, Shuaib J.

Review of Educational Research, v68 n4 p401-07 Win 1998

While traditional literature reviews have functioned to clarify a single field, the interpretive review may contribute to research that challenges the perceptual habits of reviewers and extends the ways in which research questions can be constructed and studied. The interpretive review may bring many disciplines together for a new approach to the issue studied. (SLD)
