About the Authors 301
The Second Edition of Introduction to Action Research: Social Research for Social Change focuses on how it is possible to combine practical problem solving with the generation of new theoretical insights. Authors Davydd J. Greenwood and Morten Levin offer a thorough discussion of the epistemological foundations of action research while providing a broad overview of major contemporary trends in the field.
New to the Second Edition:
• Includes a vast amount of updated information: Nine chapters have been significantly updated, including two new chapters that engage readers in the current debates on action research as tradition or as its own methodology, and how action research (AR) takes shape in the university environment. New text boxes in each chapter highlight important issues, and more detailed cases and real-world examples illustrate the practical implications of AR in a variety of settings.
• Incorporates a new structure: New information pertains specifically to issues of techniques, work forms, and research strategies based on the authors’ experiences in using the book in teaching. The book now has four parts instead of three, with entirely new sections on higher education and democracy.
• Highlights the skill sets needed to do action research: This book deals with the process of educating action researchers and reviews a number of programs that do this. Specific attention is given to the challenges of writing and intellectual property matters in AR, and more focus is devoted to both adult and formal education. In essence, the authors provide a comprehensive overview of the field that is not found in any other action research book.
Intended Audience:
This is an excellent textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in Action Research, Social Research, and Qualitative Research across the social sciences, education, and management.
