Decolonized Methodologies for Social Research

Beschreibung

Silenced Qualitative Communication/ Social Research Methodologies exposes how/why familiar social research concepts connote different things in quantitative and qualitative methods. This book provides evidence showing how the guidelines of thee qualitative method and methodologies are silenced by methodolators in Nigeria. It exposes the flaws in mimicking and forcing Nigerians to run social research with only the 'scientific research method' of the natural sciences. It provides a comprehensive guideline and exemplars on the emancipatory multi/cross-disciplinary social research methodologies of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), Autoethnography and crystallization. It emphasizes why the so-called value free objectivism in social science research should submit in constructivist subjectivism. Among so many others, this book provides reasons why the so-called management sciences are part of the social sciences and should, therefore, embrace the relativist instead of the canonical view of science.
