Qualitative Research Journal, Vol.16(1), pp.2-12

Abstract
Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to offer an exemplar of post-qualitative "fieldwork in philosophy" research. The paper proposes features of such philosophical fieldwork and adumbrates examples of concepts that have emerged in the process of undertaking the research. Design/methodology/approach - The paper is conceptual, drawing on an abductive approach. Post-qualitative understandings that question the validity of methodology and theory as separable entities are operationalised. Findings - The paper provides insights into how post-qualitative research might be undertaken and what might emerge in the process. Originality/value - This paper fulfils a need for an example of research that is post-qualitative. Additionally, the possibilities for doing "fieldwork in philosophy" are extended, as is the work of Jacque Rancière with respect to emancipation. © 2016, Emerald Group Publishing Limited.
