  • - Problems and Possibilities in the Translocation of Research Methods
     
    715,95 kr.

  • - A Critical Analysis of Meaning Attribution
    af John (University of Worcester Paley
    571,95 kr.

    `Phenomenology¿ is now also used to denote an empirical form of qualitative research (PQR), especially in health, psychology and education. This book examines these methods closely, offering a detailed analysis of worked-through examples in three influential textbooks by Giorgi, van Manen, and Smith, Flowers and Larkin. Paley argues that the methods described in these texts are radically under-specified, and suggests alternatives to PQR as an approach to qualitative research, referring to Heideggerian alternatives to interviewing. This book also analyses, and aims to develop, the implicit theory of `meaning¿ found in PQR writings.

  • - Interdisciplinary and Cross-Cultural Perspectives
     
    1.901,95 kr.

    Increasing globalisation within the social sciences and education sector has necessitated greater reflections on the various dimensions of ethics involved in carrying out research in cross-cultural contexts, within and across national boundaries. Within this context, this volume draws on intensive field work to shed light on the ethical issues the contributors encountered in the course of their empirical studies, exploring such issues as feminist research ethics; cross-cultural reflection and its implications for social change; emotions, conflicts, and dangerous fields, and issues of "safety" and reflective research.

  • - Action Research and the Basic Renewal of Society
     
    1.894,95 kr.

    This book presents theoretical discussions and practical examples of Action Research from Scandinavia, Latin America and Africa, primarily dealing with how to combine nature conservation and management with local democratic community development, seeing the renewal of Commons as a way to transcend the present dichotomy between these two dimensions.

  • - Feminist Experiences and Reflections
     
    1.892,95 kr.

    Interviewing is one of the most common techniques used to conduct qualitative research in the social sciences and humanities. As a result of globalization, researchers increasingly conduct interviews cross-, inter- and intra-nationally. This raises important questions about how differences and sameness are understood and negotiated within the interview situation, as well as the power structures at play within qualitative research, and the role that reflexivity plays in mediating these.

    This edited collection explores issues that arise when researching "hard-to-reach" groups and those who remain socially excluded and marginalized in society, such as access, the use of gatekeepers, ethical dilemmas, "voice," and how such research contributes to issues of inclusion and social justice. The book uses a wide range of empirical and theoretical approaches to examine the difficulties, dilemmas and complexities surrounding research methodologies with particular groups. It emphasizes the importance of national and international perspectives in such discussions, and suggests innovative methodological procedures.

  • - A Reflexive Approach
     
    1.993,95 kr.

    Focusing on dialogic communication theory, science and technology studies, and action research, this volume explores the methodological, epistemological, and ethical conundrums that arise within collaborative research in the dialog between researchers, policy makers, and citizens. It argues that researchers can best deal with the complexities and tensions of collaborative research through reflexive analyses of how "dialogue" and "participation" are played out concretely in different settings.

  •  
    1.885,95 kr.

    This volume situates itself at the intersection of two trends: the affective turn in the social sciences, and the increasing promotion of collaborative research in the social sciences and humanities (and between those knowledge domains and the sciences). It draws on cultural theories of affect, and work on research collaboration, to explore the ways in which emotions are articulated, mobilized and practised in the context of collaborative knowledge production.

    How do scholars transform qualitative data into finalized analysis? What does making analysis imply? This book sheds light on a notoriously difficult but crucial aspect of the research process. It addresses a central analytical-methodological concern that all scholars and students grapple with, but which is seldom explored in research literature.

  • - Re-Envisioning Research
     
    1.888,95 kr.

    Non-representational theory is one of the contemporary moment''s most influential theoretical perspectives within social and cultural theory. It is now widely considered to be the logical successor of postmodern theory, the logical development of post-structuralist thought, and the most notable intellectual force behind the turn across the social and cultural sciences away from cognition, meaning, and textuality. And yet, it is often poorly understood. This is in part because of its complexity, but also because of its limited treatment in the few volumes chiefly dedicated to it. Theories must be useful to researchers keen on utilizing concepts and analytical frames for their personal interpretive purposes. How useful non-representational theory is, in this sense, is yet to be understood. This book outlines a variety of ways in which non-representational ideas can influence the research process, the very value of empirical research, the nature of data, the political value of data and evidence, the methods of research, the very notion of method, and the styles, genres, and media of research.

  • - A Relational Constructionist Approach
    af Sheila McNamee & Dian Marie Hosking

  • - Critical and Relational Approaches to Sustainability Transitions
     
    1.648,95 kr.

  • - Inscribing Bodies in Qualitative Research
     
    1.983,95 kr.

    This volume is dedicated to exploring and exposing the challenges, the possibilities, and the processes of empirical work in embodiment. Grounded in qualitative inquiry in the humanities and social sciences, the chapters describe perspectives and contexts of embodied research, but focus on the methodologies, methods, and analytic frames taken up to grapple with this ever-more theorised aspect of qualitative inquiry. The authors drawn together in this volume share an investment in the ways in which the body inscribes and is inscribed within research that foregrounds the cultural, social, affective, and political discourses that are at the core of how bodies act and are acted upon.
