Title: Open to Disruption Condition: New Subtitle: Time and Craft in the Practice of Slow Sociology Author: Margaret K. Nelson Contributor: Margaret K. Nelson (Edited by), Anita Ilta Garey (Edited by), Rosanna Hertz (Edited by) Format: Paperback EAN: 9780826519856 ISBN: 9780826519856 Publisher: Vanderbilt University Press Genre: Society & Culture Topic: Social Sciences Release Date: 30/07/2014 Description: At a time when an emphasis on productivity in higher education threatens to undermine well-crafted research, these highly reflexive essays capture the sometimes profound intellectual effects that may accompany disrupted scholarship. They reveal that over long periods of time relationships with people studied invariably change, sometimes in dramatic ways. They illustrate how world events such as 9/11 and economic cycles impact individual biographies.
Some researchers describe how disruptions prompted them to expand the boundaries of their discipline and invent concepts that could more accurately describe phenomena that previously had no name and no scholarly history. Sometimes scholars themselves caused the disruption as they circled back to work they had considered ""done"" and allowed the possibility of rethinking earlier findings.
