Qualitative Inquiry in Social Work is a global publication that bridges gaps between oral transmission and journal articles. The writing is informal, personal, and interesting and matches our experiences as qualitative inquirers. We chose the word "inquiry" over "research" because the term "in-quiry" has a broad sweep that includes research and goes beyond it. Jim Drisko wrote about the nature of inquiry in his article for this issue. He said inquiry involves fun, creativity, wonder, and speculation. The articles in QISW have these qualities. Such writing makes ideas accessible to a wide audience. Think about what's in your fieldnotes, the kinds of things you say about your research in relaxed settings, and what you think about but don't write down or even talk about. That's what we want for QISW. QISW is a publication of the Qualitative Social Work Global Network that arose from Social Work Day, the great qualitative social work get-together that happens each May at the International Congress of Qualitative Inquiry, in Urbana, Illinois, USA. Norman Denzin is the originator and director of ICQI. Qualitative inquiry includes reflections, speculations, theorizing, and creating accounts not only of human phenomena but also how our efforts might bring about positive social change.

Jane Gilgun, editor of Qualitative Inquiry in Social Work, is a professor, School of Social Work, University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, USA. She has published widely on qualitative approaches, including on deductive qualitative analysis that is a method for testing theory and doing theory-guided research. She works within the Chicago School of Social Work Research that has its origins in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and is part of the Chicago School of Sociology. The legacy continues to today and contemporary inquirers build upon the ideas of the early Chicago School.
