Yvonna Lincoln and Egon Guba’s challenge to the traditional positivist approach to research—naturalistic inquiry—may pose ethical dilemmas of its own. The author urges greater awareness of problems in over-idealizing “special relationships” in research practices and in focusing over much on individual, rather than systemic settings.
