Description
Celia Lury's innovative book challenges traditional approaches to methodology in social inquiry. By reconceptualizing the 'problem space', Lury argues that problems are not static, but created and continually recomposed as part of the methodological process. This thought-provoking book draws into conversation a range of hot-button issues, from observation and reflexivity to feminist methodologies and platformization. With an eye to the methodological potential of new trends, Lury provides a strong challenge to received wisdom, arguing that a combination of techniques can contribute to better understanding of the problem spaces we inhabit. By rethinking the nature of social inquiry, Lury offers a fresh perspective on how we produce knowledge, communicate it, and what we consider to be knowledge. This book is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in research methodology and its implications for our understanding of the world around us.
