Editors:
- Textbooks on research methods and theory rarely recognize the contextualized nature of social science, yet this book challenges the existing paradigms and frameworks by arguing that post-socialist settings (like other geopolitical contexts) pose unique methodological, theoretical, and ethical dilemmas which merit careful attention, critical scrutiny, and creative untangling.
- Each chapter reveals unique theoretical, methodological, and ethical dilemmas encountered by social science researchers and uses illustrative cases to examine researchers’ experiences in navigating complex fieldwork dilemmas in a wide range of post-socialist settings.
- Spanning the fields of education, political science, sociology, anthropology, and history, this interdisciplinary book is an essential reference point for scholarship on post-socialist education research and will appeal to students, scholars, and researchers in a range of disciplines, as well as to practitioners in the field of international development.
