Longitudinal Institutional Ethnography

Longitudinal Institutional Ethnography (longitudinal IE) combines Dorothy Smith's sociology of standpoint — institutional ethnography — with repeated data collection over time to trace how institutional texts, relations, and ruling practices shape people's everyday lives across a temporal span. By revisiting the same participants, settings, or documents at multiple time points, it reveals how institutional coordination evolves, accumulates, or intensifies over weeks, months, or years.
