New book edited by Sasha Roseneil and Stephen Frosh: "Social Research after the Cultural Turn"
A new book edited by Sasha Roseneil and Stephen Frosh, Social Research after the Cultural Turn, was published on 12 January 2012 by Palgrave Macmillan.
The book addresses fundamental questions facing those working in the social and human sciences today.
- What are the possibilities, and challenges, for social research after the 'cultural turn'?
- How have the epistemological and political contexts of social research changed?
- Can we still define a distinct sphere of 'the social' to research?
- What distinguishes social research from cultural studies and the humanities?
- What methodologies might critical social research employ, and in what registers should it operate?
Social Research after the Cultural Turn showcases Birkbeck social research and includes chapters by four current members of the Department of Psychosocial Studies – Stephen Frosh, Yasmeen Narayan, Sasha Roseneil and Lynne Segal.
