Quality (and Qualities) in Qualitative Inquiry?

I address some of the issues connected with the elusive concept of quality, especially in the process of qualitative inquiry. I do so by contrasting the relatively simple term “qualities” (or characteristics) with the more contentious idea of quality. I begin by considering aspects of psychogeography (assuming it to be one form of qualitative inquiry) and then by concentrating on the concept of quality itself in autoethnography, specifically as well as in higher education in general.
