Description
Research is Ceremony: Indigenous Research Methods by Robert Diab and Shawn Wilson explores a research paradigm shared by Indigenous scholars in Canada and Australia. This approach emphasizes relationships as a fundamental aspect of Indigenous reality, rather than just a context for research. Indigenous researchers develop relationships with ideas to achieve enlightenment through the ceremony of Indigenous research. This involves making careful choices in topic selection, data collection methods, analysis, and information presentation to maintain accountability to these relationships. By adopting this paradigm, researchers can progress Indigenous ways of being, knowing, and doing in a modern context. This book provides insight into the principles and practices of Indigenous research, highlighting its importance for maintaining accountability and responsibility in academic inquiry.
