Crossing borders: nursing practice, teaching and research together into the 21st century.
This paper addresses a research project currently in progress. It is a postmodern ethnographic and (auto)biographical undertaking that simultaneously redraws the methodological and theoretical boundaries of conventional ethnographic work while it engages a 'praxis' oriented approach to working collaboratively and creatively with nurses from both clinical practice and academia. Only the broadest parameters of this 'project of possibility' are outlined--to do otherwise would be antithetical to its participatory, processual and provisional character. It is an unprecedented venture between those who think and write about the culture of clinical nursing and those who actually live it on a daily basis.
