At the 1999 meetings of the Midwest Sociological Society, a session was organized to mark the 1998 publication of the second edition of Patricia Clough's 1992 book The End(s) of Ethnography: From Realism to Social Criticism. Presenters had been asked to comment on the significance of Clough's book and its arguments in their own work and thought. There were four brief presentations, and Clough responded to questions and comments afterward. Slightly edited versions of those four presentations are given here, interspersed with bracketed quotations from the book selected to mark some of what participants considered its most insightful arguments and claims.
