This piece revisits some of the intellectual histories of narrative practice, in particular the development of an ethnographic, co‐research approach to working with families. By tracing the influence of anthropological and sociological thought on the development of what has become ‘narrative therapy’, this piece invites current practitioners to read beyond the boundaries of any professional field in order to generate new forms of practice.
