Abstracts

EN

The article deals with the subject of story-telling as a way to interpret qualitative data. It describes the manner in which this is accomplished (passing through the stages of data collecting and analysis) as well as the difficulties the researcher meets when trying to perform a story-telling. The article is actually the confessional account of the development of a story-telling. It is a story made of other accounts (with different manners of writing: realist, descriptive and interpretative) about 'what and how' the respondents would have liked to be (sociologists which have become teachers and engineers which have become businessmen).
