Research Interests

Douglas Ezzy's research is driven by a fascination  with how people make meaningful and dignified lives. His most recent  research is an international study of teenage Witchcraft with Helen  Berger (West Chester University). It examines the interconnections of  teenage spirituality, the mass media, and nature religion. He is  particularly interested to supervise sociology postgraduates studying  contemporary spirituality.

He has published six books: Teenage Witches (with Helen Berger), Researching Paganisms (with Graham Harvey and Jenny Blain), Qualitative Research Methods (with Pranee Rice), Qualitative Analysis, Narrating Unemployment and Practising the Witch's Craft, along with numerous articles.
