Today’s researchers are inspired by the potential for scholarship to make a difference for society, to push toward more just and equitable ends, and to engage in dialogue with members of the public so that they can make decisions about how to navigate the social, cultural, and political world equipped with accurate, fair, and up-to-date knowledge. This book illustrates the mechanics and the meaning behind quantitative research methods by illustrating each step in the research design process with research addressing questions of social justice. It provides practical guidance for researchers who wish to engage in the transformation of structures, practices, and understandings in society through community and civic engagement and policy formation. It contains step-by-step guidance in quantitative methods—from conceptualization through all the stages of execution of a study, including providing a detailed guide for statistical analysis—and demonstrates how researchers can engage with social justice issues in systematic, rigorous, ethical, and meaningful ways

The urgency and complexity of contemporary social justice issues facing the world today mean that activists, scholars, and storytellers need a readily available compendium of cutting-edge scholarship on media and social justice. This handbook represents the collective wisdom of more than 40 leading voices across positionalities and perspectives, geographies and generations, meta-theories and methods, and issues and identities. Each of the 32 chapters presents a state-of-the-art systematic overview of a brief history, key concepts, contemporary debates and dialogues, and future directions. The book begins with introductory remarks on perspectives, positionalities, and paradigms. The section on approaches and analytical frameworks examines classic and contemporary media theories related to social justice such as political economy, critical cultural studies, reception studies, and framing analyses. The next section on methods and meaning-making reviews methodological tools such as quantitative criticalism, media ethnography, and critical discourse analysis for media justice researchers. These theories and methods are then applied to specific intersectional identities, contemporary social issues, and communities worldwide in the next section: “Resistance and Revisioning. The book concludes with reflections on resistances, reckoning, and reparative justice.
