Researching Ethically across Cultures

Issues of knowledge, power and voice

Herausgeber: Robinson-Pant, Anna; Singal, Nidhi

Beschreibung

Researchers working across cultures face particular challenges around power, identity, and voice, encountering ethical dilemmas which extend beyond the researcher-researched relationship. Using a cross-cultural perspective on how to conceptualise research problems, collect data, and disseminate findings in an ethical manner, they engage with the geopolitics of academic writing, language inequalities, and knowledge construction. In sharing experiences from a wide range of cultural and institutional contexts, this book offers theoretical resources and practical guidance for conducting research ethically across cultures. This book was published as a special issue of Compare.
