In Approaches to Social Research: The Case of Deaf Studies, Alys
Young and Bogusia Temple explore the relationship between key
methodological debates in social research and the special context
of studies concerning d/Deaf people(s). The book is organized
around 7 topics: being d/Deaf as a site of contested identity and
representation; epistemology and the boundaries of claims for
population specific and plural epistemologies; ethics and the
implications of collective identity on standard ethical principles
and practices; populations and sampling given the highly
heterogeneous nature of d/Deaf people(s); narrative methodologies
re-examined in light of the visual nature of signed languages;
interpretation, translation and transcription and the context of
multiple modalities; and information and communication technologies
as transformative epistemologies. Through these themes, new aspects
of old debates within social research become evident, and the
authors challenge specialist field of studies by, with, and about
d/Deaf people. Throughout the volume, the authors also show how the
field provides challenges to established ways of thinking and
working. The book is of interest to scholars within and outside of
research concerning d/Deaf people(s), as well as practitioners in
the fields of deaf education, social work and allied health
professions.
