内容説明

For the past two decades there has been much debate about method in the social sciences, focusing on issues of validity, reliability, and compatibility. During this same period, an alternative perspective examining the relation between power and method has started to emerge. This book draws from a range of disciplines to bring together scholars in the field of methodology, to discuss the underlying belief that method can no longer be understood as an innocent tool to be used by disinterested technicians. Instead, method is seen as part of a political process that shapes notions of legitimate knowledge, relations between groups and the nature of the questions posed.

内容説明

Power and Method demonstrates that political activism can and should be infused into the research process. Contesting the traditional assumptions that have dominated thinking about the nature and meaning of research--validity, objectivity and the researcher/"subject" relationship--the volume showcases alternative methods, enabling scholars to make a difference in the lives of classed, gendered and raced "subjects" and grapple honestly and openly with the way power is woven into the research process. Committed to the notion that the challenge to redefine the research process faces not only educational researchers, Power and Method includes contributions from scholars in the allied social sciences and the humanities. Responses from researchers working women's studies, anthropology, sociology and literature conclude each section and highlight common and alternative perspectives on the central themes that run throughout the volume.
