Research As Resistance: Critical, Indigenous, and Anti-Oppressive Approaches

Research As Resistance: Critical, Indigenous, and Anti-Oppressive Approaches by Brown, Leslie Allison. paperback edition. ISBN: 9781551302751.

Intended as a senior undergraduate and graduate text, Research As Resistance brings together the theory and practice of critical, Indigenous, and anti-oppressive approaches to social science research. The book pursues some of the ontological and epistemological considerations involved in such research, including theorizing the self of the researcher, and offers exemplars across a range of methodologies, including institutional ethnography, narrative autobiography, storytelling, and participatory action research. This is a unique text in that it describes both theoretical foundations and practical applications, and because all of the featured researchers occupy marginalized locations. It is also firmly anchored in the Canadian context.
