Building on the pioneering radical approach of the Research Justice: Methodologies for Social Change - a seminal text born out of the innovative work of the DataCenter Research for Justice - this updated edition explores the nexus of research, power and legitimacy, advocating for equitable knowledge construction.
Challenging traditional models, internationally recognised author Andrew Jolivette offers a much-needed analysis of the intersections between Research Methods, Public Policy, Cultural Studies, Anthropology and Sociology. Complete with a new introductory chapter, the book champions diverse forms of knowledge, envisioning a future where cultural, spiritual and experiential insights have equal impact on policymaking.
Interdisciplinary and thought-provoking, this is a vital resource for scholars and students alike.
