Doing Reflexivity: An Introduction


Overview

This book provides social science researchers with both a strong rationale for the importance of thinking reflexively and a practical guide to doing reflexivity within their research. The first book on the subject to build primarily on Pierre Bourdieu's reflexive work, it combines academic analysis with practical examples and case studies, drawing both on recent reflexive research projects and original empirical data. The book will be of interest to researchers from all career stages and disciplinary backgrounds, but especially early-career researchers and students.
