While acknowledging that certain aspects of the scientific method should be preserved, Adje van de Sande and Karen Schwartz argue that social research should not and cannot be value-free. Researchers committed to social justice and social change need to support that commitment.\u003cbr\u003eThis new edition of Research for Social Justice examines how the structural inequality perspective and anti-oppressive principles -- which view the problems experienced by people as rooted in the social, political and economic structures of society -- provide this support. Also included in this edition are updated and revised examples of research, a substantially revised chapter on Indigenous approaches to research, a chapter-by- chapter description of developing student projects in a research course and examples of student-led, community-based research projects.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdje van de Sande is an associate professor at the School of Social Work at Carleton University.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 250\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.63 x 8.9 x 5.98 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 02, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42167424385159,"sku":"9781552668788","price":63.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/1fd09d2c11659a044644760f4ed0fd67.webp?v=1733327556","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/research-for-social-justice-a-community-based-participatory-approach-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
