Participatory Case Study Work shows academic co-researchers how to
adapt and implement their methods so that data collection and
analysis is authentically participatory. At the heart of this text
is advocating a participatory approach to case study work, with
co-construction as a catalyst for shared understanding and action
in advancing ageing studies. Whilst case study research has a
relatively long tradition in the canon of research methodologies,
little attention has so far been paid to the importance and value
of participatory case study work. This is surprising as its
egalitarian and democratic value-base naturally lends itself to the
co-production and co-creation of personal and collective theory
drawn directly from lived experience. The book brings together over
15 years' worth of participatory case study work in ageing studies
in which the editors have been actively involved as either
front-line researchers or as supervisors to PhD and MPhil studies
adopting the methodology, and from where each of the contributors
is selected. Real-life case examples are shared in the main
chapters of the book and they provide direction as to how learning
can be applied to other settings. The chapters also contain key
references and recommended reading. This volume will appeal to
undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as postdoctoral
researchers interested in fields such as research methods,
qualitative methods, ageing studies and mental health studies.
