Description
This book illuminates the lived experiences of those involved in Action Research, highlighting its inherently political nature and exploring its implications and future directions. Since its inception in the 1940s, Action Research has been a contested methodology, challenging the notion that it is apolitical. Framing Action Research within a political context, the book underscores the importance of understanding organizational dynamics and the role of power in shaping practices. Employing storytelling as a methodological approach, it features contributions from international researchers and practitioners across diverse sectors, including health, education, business, and management. By adopting a unique political lens and engaging with a broad range of perspectives, the book offers a comprehensive exploration of Action Research. It presents a blend of historical depth, methodological innovation, and reflective practice while addressing the complex interplay of politics and ethics, providing insights into future challenges and opportunities in the field.
