Rights and Social Justice in Research cover

Can our research create conditions for people to flourish? What kinds of questions do we ask about the social world and how knowledge is produced? Does our approach to research itself matter?

This edited collection explores and illustrates the nature of research for social justice. Drawing on a diverse range of social research projects, it examines research with and for young people, marginalised communities and those who work to further social justice and human rights goals.

Providing key examples of the tools, processes and outcomes of research relevant to social justice, including where and how these frameworks can be used in the design and execution of research, this is a much-needed intervention to social research methodology.

“Challenging and unequal times call for research linked to social change. This book provides valuable examples of research for social justice across a range of areas. Insightful, thought-provoking and absolutely necessary.” Louise Warwick-Booth, Leeds Beckett University
