Abstract:

This volume focuses on advances in research methodology in an
interdisciplinary field framed by discourses of identity and interculturality.
It includes a range of qualitative studies: studies of interaction, narrative
studies, conversation analysis, ethnographic studies, postcolonial studies and
critical discourse studies, and emphasizes the role of discourse and power in
all studies of identity and interculturality. The volume particularly focuses
on critical reflexivity in every stage of research, including reflections on
theoretical concepts (such as ‘identity’ and ‘interculturality’) and their
relationship with methodology and analytical practice, reflections on
researcher identity and subjectivity, reflections on local and global contexts
of research, and reflections on language choice and linguacultural aspects of
data generation, analysis and communication.
