Indigenous Pathways into Social Research : Voices of a New Generation, Hardback Book

Indigenous Pathways into Social Research : Voices of a New Generation Hardback

Edited by Donna M Mertens, Fiona Cram, Bagele Chilisa

Hardback

Description

A new generation of indigenous researchers is taking its place in the world of social research in increasing numbers.

These scholars provide new insights into communities under the research gaze and offer new ways of knowing to traditional scholarly models.

They also move the research community toward more sensitive and collaborative practices.

But it comes at a cost. Many in this generation have met with resistance or indifference in their journeys through the academic system and in the halls of power.

They also often face ethical quandaries or even strong opposition from their own communities.

The life stories in this book present the journeys of over 30 indigenous researchers from six continents and many different disciplines.

They show, in their own words, the challenges, paradoxes, and oppression they have faced, their strategies for overcoming them, and how their work has produced more meaningful research and a more just society.
