Abstract

The ebook edition of this title is Open Access and freely available to read online. Over past decades, scholars and practitioners around the world observed an emergence of professionals, research managers and administrators (RMAs) who play an essential role in the advancement of academic research. RMAs have extensive knowledge of the research ecosystem, including funding opportunities, proposals, budgeting and pricing, ethics, open research, project management, finance, negotiation, strategy, systems, and assessment. Until now, limited efforts have been made to investigate RMAs in a cross-regional, comparative manner, or to understand the recent surge of the profession in a larger policy context. Addressing this gap, an international group of experts share diverse perspectives to provide a comprehensive account of RMA as a profession, offer an analytical framework to understand their role in higher education and academic science. Covering countries in Africa, Australasia, East Asia and India, Western Europe, Central and Eastern Europe, the Middle East, North America, and South America, the work provides trans-cultural coverage of the profession. Drawing on theories from related fields, it also provides insights and understanding of RMAs as a social phenomenon. The Emerald Handbook of Research Management and Administration Around the World is the most comprehensive book about practitioners working in research management and administration. The book provides basic knowledge for students and professionals considering a career in this field, and serves as reference material for policymakers as well as academic researchers. By presenting evidence-based observations from around the world and discussing global trends, this text promotes social awareness of RMAs, shares state-of-the-art knowledge on the profession, and offers insights into the future of academic research.

Abstract

Mobile Jugendarbeit stellt ein aufsuchendes, lebensweltorientiertes soziales Unterstützungsangebot für eine besonders vulnerable Zielgruppe dar. Die vorliegende Studie zu vier Einrichtungen mobiler Jugendarbeit in Österreich erfasste die hohe Komplexität von Wirkdynamiken und -zusammenhängen in diesem Interventionsfeld durch ein komplexes Forschungsdesign und einen Mix aus fünf methodischen Zugängen. Jeder Forschungszugang zeichnete sich durch spezielle Stärken aus, die sich wechselseitig ergänzten und besonders aussagekräftige Wirkungserkenntnisse ermöglichten. Mobile youth work is a social support service for a particularly vulnerable target group. The present study on four institutions of mobile youth work in Austria captured the high complexity of the dynamics and interrelations of effects in this field of intervention through a complex research design and a mix of five methodological approaches. Each research approach was characterised by special strengths that complemented each other and made particularly meaningful impact findings possible. Bemerkenswert ist insgesamt, wie selbstkritisch die Autor/innen die von ihnen eingesetzten Methoden beschreiben und deren Chancen und Probleme diskutieren. Dadurch ist das Buch auch für andere Forschungen interessant, die in ähnlichen Feldern unterwegs sind und mit ähnlichen Problemen zu arbeiten haben.

Abstract

The volume discusses the possibilities and limits of the documentary method in terms of basic theory, methodology and methodology. Triangulation is important in two ways: as a research practice in itself and as a way of identifying blind spots. The interest in the topic of triangulation - taking on different perspectives - relates above all to questions about the possibilities and limits offered by the documentary method for triangulation in terms of basic theory, methodology, and method. This goes beyond the common understanding of triangulation as mixed methods, which involves the combination of different methods and the validation of results. The second part of the book deals with "blind spots" of the documentary method, which become clear in comparison with other methodologies and procedures of empirical social and educational research, but which are also constituted and revealed in the actual research practice (in the field of research). Both dimensions are taken into account in the volume. Der Band diskutiert in grundlagentheoretischer, methodologischer und methodischer Hinsicht Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der Dokumentarischen Methode. Triangulation ist dabei in doppelter Weise von Bedeutung: einmal als Forschungspraxis an sich und einmal als Möglichkeit der Identifikation blinder Flecken. Das Interesse am Thema Triangulation - Einnahme unterschiedlicher Perspektiven - bezieht sich vor allem auf Fragen danach, welche Möglichkeiten und Grenzen die Dokumentarische Methode für Triangulationen in grundlagentheoretischer, methodologischer und methodischer Hinsicht bietet. Damit wird über das gängige Verständnis von Triangulation als Mixed Methods hinausgegangen, bei dem es um die Kombination verschiedener Methoden und die Validierung von Ergebnissen geht. Im zweiten Teil des Buches geht es um "Blinde Flecken" der Dokumentarischen Methode, die im Vergleich mit anderen Methodologien und Verfahren der empirischen Sozial- und Bildungsforschung deutlich werden, sich aber auch in der eigentlichen Forschungspraxis (im Forschungsfeld) konstituieren und offenbaren. Im Band werden beide Dimensionen berücksichtigt. Der vorgelegte Band ist vor allem für diejenigen Leser*innen ein Gewinn, die mit den methodologischen und methodischen Grundlagen der Dokumentarischen Methode wohlvertraut sind und die gleichzeitig Interesse daran haben, (jenseits von konkreter methodischer Unterweisung) über grundlegende Fragen der erkenntnistheoretischen und methodologischen Fundierung der Dokumentarischen Methode nach- und weiterzudenken. socialnet.de, 10.10.2019

Abstract

Poststrukturalistische und diskurstheoretische Ansätze sind für die erziehungswissenschaftliche Geschlechterforschung von wachsender Bedeutung und gehen mit dem zunehmenden Einsatz diskursanalytischer Methoden einher. Die Beiträge des Bandes greifen das Spektrum an Themen auf, das damit bearbeitet wird, setzen aber auch Impulse zu systematisierenden Reflexionen verschiedener Diskurs- und Subjektivierungstheorien und methodischer Zugänge. Poststructuralist and discourse theoretical approaches are of growing importance for gender studies in education and are accompanied by an increasing implementation of discourse analytical methodologies. The contributions in this volume take up the wide range of topics that discourse analytical approaches currently address in educational gender studies and provide impulses for a systematizing reflection on the different theories of discourse, subjectivation and methods that are used in this field.
