"""This timely book introduces students to methodological, ethical, and epistemological foundations for thinking about cross-border and cross-cultural research. The student-friendly resource helps them to critically analyze scholarly research and to become better researchers. The fascinating collection also equips readers to understand borders and their methodological implications. It is a key resource for students taking courses in interdisciplinary programs, such as conflict studies, human rights, international studies, development studies, and migration studies.""--Giorgia Don�, Co-director of the Centre for Migration, Refugees and Belonging, University of East London ""Research across Borders is an excellent introduction to the complexities of research. the author uses illuminating real-life examples that help the reader connect theory to practice, and the overarching theme of borders is instructive not only in terms of subject matter, but also ethically and methodologically. This book takes questions of inter- and transdisciplinarity, ethics, positionality, and accountability head on, rather than as peripheral issues in research.""--Anna Sheftel, Principal of the School of Community and Public Affairs, Concordia University ""Christina Clark-Kazak's new introduction to interdisciplinary methodology, Research across Borders, is as intellectually appealing as it is satisfying. She has a keenly developed sense of social and environmental justice, and centers methodological practices to ensure that Indigenous, mobile, and other typically excluded ways of knowing are incorporated into academic and policy knowledge production, and that marginalized participants are meaningfully engaged. Her application of the critical perspective of borders to disciplinary, social and national boundaries is a much-needed lens for researchers beyond the social sciences as well.""--Anita H. F�bos, Professor of International Development, Community, and Environment, Clark University ""Research across Borders is by far the best (most clearly written, logically organized, and comprehensive) research methods textbook for undergraduate students of international and global studies that I have seen.""--Andrea Duffy, Assistant Vice Provost, Colorado State University"
