More Description
A collective project arising from a dynamic configuration of research concerned with systematic, critical and reflexive inquiry into the normative frames, institutional workings and lived realities of research, this dexterously-crafted Handbook acts as a working guide to the rapidly-evolving interdisciplinary field of meta-research.
Bringing together cutting-edge multidisciplinary scholarship, the Handbook expertly outlines key domains including the public value, policy and governance of research, knowledge dynamics, and research cultures and careers. Engaging with diverse philosophical, theoretical and methodological approaches, it examines global dynamics in research and explores equality, diversity and inclusion across sectors, career stages and geographical regions. Taking on board multi-layered perspectives from beyond traditional and exclusionary epistemic boundaries, the Handbook offers unique insight into this broad landscape of knowledge.
The Handbook of Meta-Researchwill appeal to researchers and students in a broad range of fields from the social sciences, arts and humanities and STEM who are concerned with the environments, institutions, policies, practices and evaluations that impact their work, and will be a useful starting point for researchers wanting to initiate meta-research studies to examine their own environments, actions and behaviours. Regulators, users and beneficiaries of research will similarly benefit from this authoritative reference work.
