Abstract
This comment is a response to a review essay by H. Peter Dachler of a volume we edited entitled Qualitative Methods in Organizational Research: A Practical Guide (Organization Studies 18/4). While engaging with Dachler's arguments conceming the problematic distinction made between qualitative and quantitative methods, we also suggest that his evaluation implies the additional issues of who 'owns' qualitative methods and how methodological change can best be brought about in research communities. In conclusion, we counterpose the change strategies of radical transformation and quiet revolution and call for more discussion on these issues.
