Cultivating Creativity in Methodology and Research: In Praise of Detours


Overview

This book explores the role of creativity in research, challenging the conventional boundaries of methodology and practice. Through personal narratives and reflective essays, it sheds new light on the often overlooked detours that shape the research journey. Fully revised and expanded, this second edition introduces fresh perspectives on socio-cultural and socio-material creativity, the role of art in theorizing, embodied and relational research practices, and the ethics of care in knowledge production. New chapters address creative preservation for sustainability, activist scholarship, and the role of technologies, including generative AI, as companions in research.   An invaluable resource for scholars and students in social sciences and humanities, this edited collection encourages a culture of creativity and innovation, making it a must-read for anyone interested in the dynamic interplay between life and research.
