In the years since Interpretive Description was published in first edition, interest in strategic use of qualitative methods to meet the knowledge needs of the applied and practice disciplines has mushroomed. Notwithstanding a collective debt to the social science disciplines from which original qualitative tradition derived, the applied disciplinesand by that I mean disciplines designed around doing something in the worldare beginning to own their own epistemologies and assume greater confidence in their capacity to logically adapt conventional technique in the service of answering the kinds of research questions that the applied world demands.
Interpretive description is a strategy for excavating, illuminating, articulating, and disseminating the kind of knowledge that disciplines with an application mandate tend to need in order to enact their mandatewhether it be healing, educating, serving, or building something on behalf of society. Such work is fundamentally complex and messy, often representing the kinds of wicked problems that defy whole or coherent theorizing and demand instead a multiplicity of insights, perspectives, and approaches, used intersectionally together within increasingly dynamic contexts. These are exciting times for thinking about the nature and application of knowledge, and the disciplines that do things need strategically developed ways of advancing those forms of knowledge.
