Relational spaces
This paper might not describe spatial writing or qualitative inquiry. This paper might not express or represent writing in well-defined space by clearly identified scholars or authors. This paper might not write and presented images might not speak. Instead, possibilities in this paper might be stimulated through the acts of reading, writing, thinking, and doing. Writescapes, as lived and discussed in this paper, have potential to create and prod…
Becoming Research With Shadow Work
The authors explore different wonderings to illustrate some possible ways in which postqualitative inquiry and scholarship is becoming and shaping the lives of scholars. To do this, we draw from previous work in arts-influenced inquiry and make connections with arts-based research and "research-creation" to explore how researchers can generate possibilities and becoming through the process of creating art in a purposefully relational manner. In t…
Writing, Haecceity, Data, and Maybe More
Postqualitative research offers opportunities for playful praxis-reconfiguring ways of writing, sharing, engaging in the physicality of data generation, the vitality of data matter, and the enactment of experimental forms of writing. In this article, data multiplicity is generated through an authorless haecceity of experimentation with and through writing. Taking a line of flight from an initial data event at a research conference workshop, the p…
Hoping to Reimagine the Craft of Phenomenologies (Without Leaving the Past Behind)
Aporetic and Productive Undecidedness of (Data in) Neoliberalism
In diverging from a follow-the-heard idealism that has scholars spinning in paradox, this article opens the possibility that neoliberal data can ground themselves in the reality of being in the world via a search for the immanent other, friend, concept, or practice. This article is not concerned with a search for ultimate (data) truth, but rather aporia and the intimate act of parrhesia, or truth-telling, as it is communicated in the context of l…
Interfaces between Social Media and Qualitative Inquiry in Neoliberal Contexts
Productive Forces of Post-Truth(s)
Despite efforts to re-establish epistemological order, a litany of fake websites, media misrepresentation, "rumor bombs," hoaxes, fake news, plagiarisms, and fabricated subjects document the emergence of a post-truth era. Increasing amount of scholarship is shared and distributed in media and thus the truth-value of (qualitative) inquiry also depends on the general discourses and practices operating in this contemporary post-truth era. Although c…
Improvising Bags Choreographies
Postqualitative research-creation improvisations offer new possibilities to explore method/ology. In this article, we question how bags, as seemingly mundane objects, work as ontologically lively matter-as active agencies-to choreograph human-nonhuman relations and heterogeneous materialities. Working from three questions-How might a bag become? What do bags do? What do bags enable and enact?-we discuss four research-creation improvisations and t…
Would you prefer not to?’ Resetting/resistance across literature, culture, and organizations
In this paper we put the concepts of reset, aprosdoketon and minor gesture to work in the context of organizational narratives. In particular we engage with two iconic characters of the genre of organizational fiction, Don Draper in the context of Mad Men TV series and the copyist, who is the main character of Bartleby, the Scrivener by Herman Melville. Through a series of textual and performative writings we explore the possibility of setting an…
Multilayered Analyses of the Experiences of Undocumented Latinx College Students
Being the target of constant discrimination and marginalization can often cause intense negative psychological reactions and shame for undocumented students. The following qualitative study describes past and current undocumented Latinx students’ experiences of educational inequality in higher education influenced by labels associated with “being undocumented.” In this study we used a constructivist theoretical perspective which enabled us to foc…
Narratives and Nested-Time
Narratives are often created within a linear time, which allows them to be organized into a simple and discrete series of events. However, narratives can be created outside of linear time, thereby changing the organization of the narrative. To think about this further, we draw from Henri Bergson’s concept of duration and Gilles Deleuze’s ontology of difference to reconsider time in narratives and question the simple temporal organization of event…
Work/Think/Play/Birth/Death/Terror/Qualitative/Research
Inspired by work/think/play in qualitative research, we centered the idea of "play" in a qualitative research project to explore what proceeding from the idea of work/think/play might look like and accomplish. We pursued play in an experimental qualitative inquiry over dinner one night at the 2016 Annual Meeting of the American Educational Research Association. Our article centers on one work/think/play inquiry three of us conducted. Through a pl…
Critical Qualitative Inquiry
This introduction to the special issue does not only introduce the content of the issue, it also generates connections among histories, traditions, theories, thinkers, thoughts, actions, and power. We propose that critical qualitative inquiry that would further expand theoretically informed, engaged activism is of greater importance than ever as we experience unprecedented technological change, violence against living beings that are not labeled …
Critical Qualitative Methodologies
Critical qualitative scholarship offers humble grounds and many unforeseen possibilities to seek and promote justice, critical global engagement, and diverse epistemologies. This dialogical and interactive paper is based on a panel session at the International Congress of Qualitative Inquiry that highlighted diverse areas of critical qualitative inquiry, namely justice, difference, ethics, and equity. Authors in this paper share their critical qu…
(Re)mixing Foucault and Deleuze
The purpose of this article is to explore further and through other examples what happens when a Foucauldian conception of power is remixed with “the theoretical toolbox of Deleuze” to address diverse notions of power in critical qualitative science inquiry. The article experiments with Foucauldian power/knowledge and the Deleuzian machine by using the metaphor of capoeira to argue that critical qualitative science can maintain its social justice…
The importance of small form
Byoung-gyu: From my perspective, the relationship between data and neoliberalism has been under scrutiny, especially by some critical thinkers for some time now. The proliferation of research on neoliberalism and the rise of BIG data have incurred different terminology usages, which at least partially speak to the problematic role of data in neoliberalism. For example, scholars talk about informational neoliberalism (Neubauer, 2011), datafication…
Disrupting Data in Qualitative Inquiry
Academic Problem-Solving and Students’ identities as engineers
Socially constructed identities and language practices influence the ways students perceive themselves as learners, problem solvers, and future professionals. While research has been conducted on individuals’ identity as engineers, less has been written about how the language used during engineering problem solving influences students’ perceptions and their construction of identities as learners and future engineers. This study investigated engin…
Neoliberalism in Higher Education
Concern regarding capitalism, profiteering, and the corporatization of higher education is not new. A market focus that creates students as consumers and faculty as service providers has dominated global practices in colleges and universities for some time. Most recently, however, this more liberal market-driven focus has actually morphed away from a jurisdictional emphasis (with a potential focus on fairness) to forms of veridiction (neoliberal …
A Slow Reading [of] Notes and Some Possibilities of Liberated, Open, Becoming Universities
University similar to church is one of the oldest institutions passing and preserving cultural heritage. In addition, universities are active societal contributors and influential communal contingences in our contemporary societies. However, recently increasing numbers of these traditional and historical functions of universities have become hijacked by neoliberal practices and values. Oftentimes, alternatives to the restructured and liberated un…

Cute, creepy and sublime unnamed childhood monstrosities
Strangers, Gods, and monsters are all names for the experience of alterity and otherness within and amongst us. We need monsters in our lives. In this paper we use philosophy as a method to explore language, developmental and cultural instabilities, and terrifying (and discursive) monstrosity located within children's literature and childhood contexts. Philosophy as a method serves as an engagement, an ethical relationship with monstrous thoughts…
Post Author/Ship
In this article, imposters' (or fake authors) aim is to problematize fixed concepts such as author, authoring, and authorship both in qualitative research and in organization studies-especially in relation to organizational communications that ostensibly promote and value diversity of (sexual) identity. In seeking to do so, these imposters engage with an IKEA ad and, in a process of "prospective" writing, inductively explore the absence or void o…
Layers of narratives, images, and analysis
Purpose – In this paper, the authors offer a methodological discussion and examples of visual analysis processes. The purpose of this paper is to illustrate a data analysis method that the authors named layered textural analysis, which brought together images and texts in ways that changed existing and decontextualized understandings. The authors used layered textural analysis to interpret photo-narratives from a photo elicitation study about the…
(E)pistemological Awareness, Instantiation of Methods, and Uninformed Methodological Ambiguity in Qualitative Research Projects
This article explores epistemological awareness and instantiation of methods, as well as uninformed ambiguity, in qualitative methodological decision making and research reporting. The authors argue that efforts should be made to make the research process, epistemologies, values, methodological decision points, and argumentative logic open, accessible, and visible for audiences. To these ends, they discuss two ways of conceptualizing the role of …

Validity, Responsibility, and Aporia
In this article, the author problematizes external, objectified, oversimplified, and mechanical approaches to validity in qualitative research, which endorse simplistic and reductionist views of knowledge and data. Instead of promoting one generalizable definition or operational criteria for validity, the author's "deconstructive validity work" addresses how validity can be framed in the context of researchers' responsibility and decision making …
The Management of Courtesy Stigma in the Lives of Families With Teenagers With ADHD
This qualitative study investigates how parents of adolescents with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) manage courtesy stigma in their lives. Focus groups are conducted with mothers and fathers of adolescents with ADHD who are part of a cohort study on ADHD detection and service use. Using grounded theory analysis, researchers find that parents react to external expectations put forward by various community networks, but they respond…

Methodology brut
A reminder: This text has been created as a series of brut and raw responses representing a collective of "impossible" imaginings. Our collective writing is not about the vision or about insights into the future of qualitative inquiry per se, but it is about ways in which some qualitative researchers wish to stay methodologically and theoretically in flux and motion. We desire to face this uncertainty, rawness, and creative chaos by engaging in c…

Researchers of the World, Create
In this article, the author wants to work against simplified and mechanical notions of qualitative research simultaneously illustrating that researchers have a choice. The author aims to create an overlapping and plural text that is dynamic, presenting possibilities for surprise and more intensive experiences with research and texts. More specifically, the author disrupts the traditional ordered narrative in a conceptualizing and critiquing of me…
Demystifying Interdisciplinary Qualitative Research
This article seeks to demystify, through deconstruction, the concept of interdisciplinarity in the context of qualitative research to contribute to a new praxis of knowledge production through reflection on the possibilities and impossibilities of interdisciplinarity. A review and discussion of disciplinarity and interdisciplinarity leads the authors to formulate and explore the following questions: What is interdisciplinary knowledge? What is it…
Impossibilities of Reconciliation
This article discusses how validity and truth claims, which are often based on singular theoretical and philosophical assumptions, are negotiated within qualitative research practices created at the intersection of two theoretical perspectives. The article asks, What are the possibilities and impossibilities of validity established within the discursive fields that form and shape mixed theory projects? More specifically, this article explores how…
The Technologies of Normalization and Self
In this article, the authors discuss the technologies of normalization and self in relation to ethics and the problematization of extrinsic research ethics. They argue that institutional review boards (IRBs) and other similar institutional mechanisms promote extrinsic forms of ethics that are exemplified through institutionalized structures such as (a) the Belmont Report, (b) IRB protocol, (c) informed consent, and (d) localized interpretations o…
Writing Visually Through (Methodological) Events and Cartography
This article explores visual forms of writing through cartography and methodological events. As re-envisioned writing practices and textual methodologies potentially push boundaries of qualitative research, these new lines of inquiry also may respond to persisting educational challenges that confine occupational job design and career pathways in education. Various related and unrelated inquiries, representations, and practices set in motion a ser…
Data' As Vital Illusion
I produce data. You produce data. She produces data. We produce data. They produce data. Data is being produced. Data produces us. Data. Data. Data. . . . But only illusions of 'data.' Copies of 'data.' ∞
"Answers," Assemblages, and Qualitative Research
Although educational researchers predominately study complex, multidimensional problems, research findings and proposed arguments can sometimes be characterized as definite, simplified, and prone to particular types of answers or expected outcomes. The authors seek to problematize these definite and simplified notions of answers by looking at some historical developments of dialogue and how answers have been conceptualized within these historical…
Contending With Border Making in the Social Constructionist Interview
As a part of the border-making process that occurs during the social constructionist interview, realities and various preassumed roles are created by researchers and by their respondents. Arbitrary lines are set between researcher and respondent during the interview as the researcher seeks to better understand and tell the story of his or her interviewee in a clear and controlled manner. The authors do not consider the Romanticist aim of obtainin…
Metaphors as a way to explore qualitative data
Qualitative data can allow us to see multiple meanings and realities of human experiences. Sometimes the variations of realities makes interpretation challenging. This article provides examples of how metaphors, related to the life history context, "extend horizons of insight and create new possibilities" (Morgan, 1997, p. 351) to view the participants, the researcher, and the story of research as well as to add to the knowledge about Finnish sci…

A phenomenological study of Korean students' acculturation in middle schools in the USA
The purpose of this phenomenological interview study was to describe how visiting Korean students experience social adjustment and acculturation when attending US middle schools. As a result of phenomenological analysis, the essences of Korean students' social adjustment included: (1) descriptions of power struggles; (2) misconceptions of cultural differences; (3) coping behaviors; and (4) academic achievement. In conclusion, the authors argue th…

Beliefs and Values of Successful Scientists
This article discusses a construction of academic work ethic among 16 gifted Finnish scientists. It highlights theoretical assumptions and practical implications of values and beliefs in the context of scientific work. Following the work of Kolhberg (1969, 1984) and Gilligan (1982), we build our theoretical pre-understandings on the ethics of justice and care. However, these orientations are insufficient to explain all the beliefs and values asso…
Displacing metaphorical analysis
Metaphorical analysis within a poststructuralist perspective displaces the assumed meanings of metaphors, especially if one expects those metaphors to provide stable epistemological connections. The analysis presented in this article produces alternative readings of participants'metaphors and illustrates how knowledge and truth are displaced once they are detached from positivism, intended meanings, or predetermined uses. Metaphor data from the i…

More specifically, this article explores how…
Strategic turns labeled 'ethnography
In this article we suggest that strategic turns shape various contemporary uses of ethnography and reflect the exploration of ontological, epistemological, and methodological alternatives. In addition, these strategic turns are aimed to meet the current challenges influenced by changing cultures and their diverse perceptions faced by an increasing number of qualitative researchers. The goal of description that has characterized one end of ethnogr…

Validity and Validation in the Making in the Context of Qualitative Research
In this article, I focus on two ways of conceptualizing validity and validation, by using reductionist and (e)pistemological approaches, respectively. I question some common understandings of reductionist validation and describe an (e)pistemological standpoint that provides an alternative to reductionist views. In addition, I argue that validity and validation, as concepts, are tools rather than reflections of truth. Furthermore, fallibility, whi…
Reflecting on the Experience Sampling Method in the Qualitative Research Context
In this conceptual article, we discuss how the conventional experience sampling method (ESM) was applied to a qualitative research project to increase participants' agency and empowerment during data collection. Specifically we outline the conceptual and methodological tensions, complexities, and power shifts that emerged during our data-collection process. Research examples illustrate the location of knowers (researchers and study participants),…
Positivity in qualitative research
This article emphasizes the essential role of positivity, an organized field of knowledge, in qualitative research and how positivity enables and limits qualitative data, design, and research process. First, I describe some possible objects and subjects of knowing in qualitative research and discuss potential conditions of postmodernist/poststructuralist qualitative research. I then illustrate how different systems (such as language and power) wi…

“Mission Civilisatrice”
In this paper, we take issue with the supposed superiority of specific epistemologies, methodologies, and research practices, as well as the neocolonialist practices of discovery, development and interpretation of evidence. Furthermore, we illustrate how the colonization of evidence is enacted through discourses of domination, subjectivication, and civilization. We maintain that these practices and discourses intend to establish more unified, nar…

Double Gestures and Practices
Qualitative researchers working within biomedicine lead a double life. Biomedical discourse silences other, interpretive, and contextually situated voices through various processes including peer review and grant agencies as reviewers demand simplified (quasi-) quantitative methods while demanding the elimination of qualitative ‘jargon’ and situated knowledge. However, since both of the authors of this paper have lived within medical discourse, t…
Exploring Performativity and Resistance in Qualitative Research Interviews
This play describes how the authors become aware of the complexities of resistance and performativity in the qualitative interview process. It also illustrates how this awareness and subsequent acquisition of knowledge changed and informed the way they viewed qualitative research interviewing. More specifically, performativity is put into work in this play through various theorists and examples from two qualitative research studies. As Cathrine a…

Living the Question of Responsibility
We know that sexual harassment is a serious problem in academia. However, in this brief commentary I want to work against my ontological desire for simple answers to complex questions (of individual or institutional ethics, norms, power, university structures and hierarchies, bureaucracy, etc. associated with sexual harassment). I am curious what could be gained by asking questions-different, difficult, ethical, political, and personal questions.…
