This book argues that constructivism and realism both have their strengths and weaknesses as descriptive models of how research is conducted and written up and as normative models for improving inquiry. The book proposes realist constructivism as a general epistemic model for one area of inquiry--cross-cultural studies, defined as studies involving scholars from one society or culture studying another.
