This collection from a highly impressive international group of
educational researchers explores epistemological, methodological,
and ethical-political issues in the production of knowledge about
educational phenomena in contemporary society. The book is
organized in two sections. The first focuses on how the enterprise
of knowledge production is being influenced by global discourses of
educational accountability, evidence-based practice and policy, and
quality assessment. The second section features material that
focuses more specifically on reconceiving both methodological
matters and the kinds of knowledge that demand attention in this
climate.
The book is unique in bringing together chapters by scholars
well-known internationally for their original contributions to
educational theory and research practice. Many books in this area
are no more than guides on how to do research or text books
reiterating rather narrow frameworks of research paradigms, this
book both breaks new ground and sets the tone for discussions about
the future path of educational research in the coming years.
