The Palgrave International Handbook of Action Research offers a
vivid portrait of both theoretical perspectives and practical
action research activity and related benefits around the globe,
while attending to the cultural, political, social, historical and
ecological contexts that localize, shape and characterize action
research. Consisting of teachers, youth workers, counselors,
nurses, community developers, artists, ecologists, farmers,
settlement-dwellers, students, professors and
intellectual-activists on every continent and at every edge of the
globe, the movement sustained and inspired by this community was
born of the efforts of intellectual-activists in the mid-twentieth
century specifically: Orlando Fals Borda, Paulo Freire, Myles
Horton, Kurt Lewin. Cross-national issues of networking, as well as
the challenges, tensions, and issues associated with the
transformative power of action research are explored from multiple
perspectives providing unique contributions to our understanding of
what it means to do action research and to be an action researcher.
This handbook sets a global action research agenda and map for
readers to consider as they embark on new projects.
