The changing landscape of arts and action research
Watching the evening come across Cadair Idris, a spectacular mountain in northwest Wales, you can see the landscape change moment by moment as the shadows of the clouds shift across the slope and the sky darkens.

Action research has changed the landscape of social science research by dramatically shifting o…

Following Dewey’s (1934/2005) contention that art is grounded in experience, we adopt a purposefully non-aggrandizing perspective on ‘leadership as art’, arguing that this prompts greater critical attention to possibilities for inclusiveness in these realms of human endeavour. We propose the present inquiry, in which parti…

We draw on Habermas’s theorizing of the boundary-crises between system and lifeworld t…
