It is a very interesting discussion, especially when we discussed about differences between narrative inquiry and narrative-style oral history interview.
If some of you are interested in narrative inquiry and its analysis, you may read the paper article as below: Connelly, F. M., Clandinin, D. J., & He, M. F. (1997). Teachers'personal practical knowledge on the professional knowledge landscape. Teaching and Teacher Education, 13(7), 665-674.
Can I say that one of the difference between narrative inquiry and ethnography (I know they are not under the same category but they both use method like in-depth interview, observation etc.) is that the former dealing more with the retrospective data and the latter more concentrate on the present life?
There is no time limit for narrative inquiry. It could be about the past and the present. In my opinion, narrative inquiry focuses on narrative thinking while doing research, which is related to what you think knowledge is and how you interpret experience, etc. I assume that ethnography originally refers to the way that you access to a community, a tribe, etc. which is totally new for you and you try to understand it.
