Description

Inviting new and innovative perspectives that question the status quo and push the boundaries of knowledge production, the book begins with the premise of global inclusivity, intentionally correcting the power imbalance of research conducted by those in areas of privilege against those in conditions of marginality. Building on emerging research on and from the Global South, this book echoes a growing need to interested students and scholars, not only to advance the subject of this work, but also to strengthen communication scholarship overall. Inspired by knowledge formed through feminist, critical and postcolonial perspectives, the book questions the imbalance of our knowledge production and suggests avenues for improvement.
Accompanying scholars in their negotiating processes to conduct research in non-Western contexts and supporting graduate and postgraduate students in research that does not conform to the standards developed in Western academic cultures, this volume will be of interest to those working in intercultural communication, interpersonal communication, research methods in communication, critical communication studies and journalism, as well as those from adjacent fields such as political studies, anthropology, sociology and area studies.
