Universities are increasingly being asked to take an active role as
research collaborators with citizens, public bodies, and community
organisations, which, it is claimed, makes them more accountable,
creates better research outcomes, and enhances the knowledge base.
Yet many of these research collaborators, as well as their funders
and institutions, have not yet developed the methods to 'account
for' collaborative research, or to help collaborators in
challenging their assumptions about the quality of this work. This
book, part of the Connected Communities series, highlights the
benefits of universities collaborating with outside bodies on
research and addresses the key challenge of articulating the value
of collaborative research in the arts, humanities and social
sciences. Edited by two well respected academics, it includes
voices and perspectives from researchers and practitioners in a
wide range of disciplines. Together, they explore tensions in the
evaluation and assessment of research in general, and the debates
generated by collaborative research between universities and
communities to enable greater understanding of collaborative
research, and to provide a much-needed account of key theorists in
the field of interdisciplinary collaborative research.
