Insiders and Outsiders Exploring Cape Verde

Abstract

Our study of Cape Verde was done using two forms of qualitative methods, a thematic analysis of critical ethnography and critical discourse analysis. In the previous chapter we outlined the characteristics of ethnography. Here we will elaborate on that description. In addition, we will spell out the differences between ethnography and critical ethnography and the ways in which our research fits into the latter type. We will also provide a review of critical discourse analysis and the way we used it as a tool for understanding the data on Creole.
