While education researchers have drawn on the work of a wide
diversity of theorists over the years, much contemporary theory
building in these areas has revolved around the work of Pierre
Bourdieu. Theory as Method in Research develops the capacity of
students, researchers and teachers to successfully put Bourdieu's
ideas to work in their own research and prepare them effectively
for conducting Masters and Doctoral scholarships. Structured around
four core themes, this book provides a range of research case
studies exploring educational identities, educational inequalities,
school leadership and management, and research in teacher
education. Issues as diverse as Chinese language learning and
identity, school leadership in Australia and the school experience
of Afro-Trinidadian boys, are covered, intertwined with a set of
innovative approaches to theory application in education research.
This collection brings together, in one comprehensive volume, a set
of education researchers who place Pierre Bourdieu's key concepts
such as habitus, capital and field at the centre of their research
methodologies. Full of insight and innovation, the book is an
essential read for practitioners, student teachers, researchers and
academics who want to harness the potential of Bourdieu's core
concepts in their own work, thereby helping to bridge the gap
between theory and method in education research.
