Reimagining Academic Activism cover

How can we reimagine the relationship between academia and activism to provide new opportunities for social change?

Based on an ethnography with an anti-violence feminist collective, this vibrant and vital book develops an interdisciplinary approach to activism and activist research, helping us reimagine the role of scholarship in the fight against social inequality.

With its reflections on novel tools that can be utilized in the fight for social justice, this book will be a valuable resource for academics in critical management studies, sociology, gender studies, and social work as well as practitioners and policymakers across the social services sector.

"This has been an integral part of my PhD thesis in navigating the complexities of research relating to social justice. It perfectly articulates the experience of those who find themselves neither ‘academic’ nor ‘activist’ in an emergent research space” Will Hunter, PhD Management, University of Bristol
