At a time when an emphasis on productivity in higher education
threatens to undermine well-crafted research, these highly
reflexive essays capture the sometimes profound intellectual
effects that may accompany disrupted scholarship. They reveal that
over long periods of time relationships with people studied
invariably change, sometimes in dramatic ways. They illustrate how
world events such as 9/11 and economic cycles impact individual
biographies.
Some researchers describe how disruptions prompted them to expand
the boundaries of their discipline and invent concepts that could
more accurately describe phenomena that previously had no name and
no scholarly history. Sometimes scholars themselves caused the
disruption as they circled back to work they had considered "done"
and allowed the possibility of rethinking earlier findings.
