Abstract (German)

Qualitative Interviews, objektive Hermeneutik

Abstract (English)

The object of this project is to embed influence behaviour (in all hierarchical directions) in its organizational context. Based on qualitative interviews we reconstruct the actors' own logic of action and the structured fields that enable and constrain them. We especially analyse situations that are regarded as 'normal' and the actors' attempts to handle deviations from normality.
