Recensioner i media

"Reflexive research struggles for legitimacy in neoliberalised universities which valorise evidence-based research. There is also little guidance for doing this work ‘in a way that is both reflexive and, yet, notes the limits of self-reflexivity' (Lather 1993, 685 cited in Davies et al. 2004, 361). Commendably, [the authors] recognise its complexity and the tensions between ‘researcher identity as part of the academy and researcher identity as part of the field of action' (p. 108)." Gender and Education, March 2009
