Social work research is concerned with complex social issues
closely connected to communities of people who are marginalized and
oppressed. This volume develops critical and creative research
methodologies that place questions of social justice at their
centre and take innovative approaches to collecting, analysing,
interpreting and presenting research data. The first section of the
book examines textual data produced from an array of methodologies
focused on the spoken and/or written word. These approaches allow
those who are often silenced to speak by providing space and time
to capture memory and meanings that may not come to light in a time
driven structured research method like an interview or a
questionnaire. The second section of the book discusses visual
methods, including an examination of historical artefacts like,
photographs and objects, and participant engagement with art,
specifically clay sculpture and drawings. Both sets of methods
examine the concept of 'time', that is, how we understand time, as
in our past memories, how we develop relationships and knowledge
over time. These creative and critical methods provide new insights
into ways of undertaking social research in social work which
captures the complexity of social experiences, problems and
meanings that are, more often than not, embedded in time and place.
