Overview

For many, the contemporary era is troubling.

To find one's way in these challenging times is increasingly complex and requires new ways of thinking about academe, culture, society, methodology, ourselves. Researchers and theorists find they must transcend traditional boundaries as they attempt to account for and respond to these challenges.

The papers in this collection reflect these issues as they set out to analyse, interrogate, describe, examine, 'unpack', disturb, and explain the practice of educational research and/or the educational practices under investigation.
