Review :
This new volume represents an urgent paradigm shift away from research as extraction, and towards a relational ethics of care. The authors powerfully model how research can illuminate, mobilize and embody the transformative power of relationships characterized by love and dignity. Required reading for the everyday work of educational justice.
Care-Based Methodologies is a rich and timely exploration of approaches to qualitative inquiry that center relationship, heart, and humanity in every aspect of research design and practice. Readers will find chapters brimming with actionable guidance and vibrant illustrations of how centering care deepens the critical impact of research with youth.
