Produktbeschreibung

The areas of race, class, and gender have generated increasing attention within the academy, providing a strong critique of the supposed neutrality of the research process. Interrogating Racism in Qualitative Research Methodology presents qualitative studies and essay reviews that connect these emerging theories to research and practice in the public schools as well as in institutions of higher education. Each chapter explores an emerging area of legal scholarship known as critical race theory and adopts a penetrating perspective that recognizes the normality and invisibility of racism in all aspects of society. This book explores the links between critical race theory and qualitative research methodology, and it interrogates how race connects and conflicts with other areas of difference and is never entirely absent from the research process.

Rezensionen

«Whites, whiteness, and white racism continue to dominate U.S. education and educational research. However, few educational leaders or leading educational researchers are willing to fully engage this white dominance. In contrast, critical race theory - an epistemology, a political movement, a wide range of voices - has emerged in educational research to address and counter, to critique and dismantle white racism. Led principally by scholars of color, the emergence of critical race theory is supremely important. This excellent collection is a valuable addition to the continuing work of critical race theory. Buy this book, learn this theory, teach it to others, practice it, and end white racism.» (James J. Sheurich, Associate Professor, Department of Educational Administration, The University of Texas at Austin; Author of 'Research Method in the Postmodern' (1997) and 'Anti-Racist Scholarship: An Advocacy' (2002))
«The contributors in this book raise important questions about epistemological racism, call into question the frameworks that privilege certain perspectives over others, challenging the conventional wisdom we have all taken for granted. 'Interrogating Racism in Qualitative Research Methodology' offers ways of seeing that have been historically excluded.» (Ruben Donato, Associate Professor of Education, and Chair of Educational Foundations, Policy, and Practice, University of Colorado at Boulder)
