Book Synopsis The Research Event by : Mike Michael

Download or read book The Research Event written by Mike Michael and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can we research the not-as-yet? The Research Event is concerned with enabling and nurturing an empirical and analytic sensibility that can address – that is speculate on – the emergent and the prospective in social life. A distinctive and novel contribution, this book introduces and expands on the notion of the ‘research event’, equipping the researcher with the speculative means to connect with the changing landscape of social scientific research. As such the research event is understood as a fluid, unfolding process that encompasses a multitude of heterogeneous ingredients, ranging from the formulation of research questions, through the vagaries of participant engagement, to the practices of writing and dissemination. The book aims to provide social science researchers with practical and conceptual heuristics for the ‘opening up’ of research practice so that it better engages with, but also better provokes, the possibilities that are entailed in the doing of social research. Inventively and entertainingly, the book draws on many of the author's own empirical examples to illustrate critically the use and value of these heuristics. As a research event in itself, this book is a speculation on prospective methodologies and an invitation to explore the possibilities of social research. This book will appeal to a broad range of social science researchers, from advanced undergraduates to established scholars. It will be a key reading in advanced BA and MA courses on alternative research methodologies, or a supplementary reading on more traditional courses aiming to include emerging methods.
