DIY academic archiving: Mischievous disruptions of a new counter-movement
Against increasing injunctions in research governance to create open data, and knee-jerk rejections from qualitative researchers in response to such efforts, we explore a radical counter movement of academics engaged in what we term “DIY Academic Archiving,” the creation of open and accessible archives of their research materials. We turn to interviews with three DIY academic archivists, each drawing on an ethos of community archiving, as opposed…
Reanimating feminist archives: Ethics and praxis
This study explores the complexities of developing feminist archives with a particular focus on the ‘Feminist Approaches to Youth Sexuality (FAYS)’ archive, created as part of the Reanimating Data project (RAD, 2018-21). Through this case study, we explore the ethical considerations and practices involved in reanimating a landmark feminist study, the Women, Risk, and AIDS Project (WRAP), and emphasize the ethical dimensions of reanimation process…
The prevalence of harassment of diagnostic radiography and radiation therapy students whilst on clinical placement in the Republic of Ireland
Objective To determine if student radiographers and radiation therapists experience harassment (verbal, physical or sexual) while on clinical placement and their awareness of policies in place to report such incidents.Methods An online questionnaire developed from the World Health Organisation’s questionnaire on workplace violence in healthcare and the higher education authority (HEA) national survey of student experiences of sexual violence and …
Fashioning DIY digital archives: Unsettling academic research to centre garment workers’ voices
Recent calls for decentring Eurocentric frameworks across fashion studies, alongside growing commitments to worker rights, calls for a circular economy, waste reduction and more sustainable materials draw attention to the complex and intractable social, environmental and political challenges facing the global sector. Here we point out how academic research is also implicated in reproducing inequalities, through practices of data collection, analy…
Towards an Inventive Ethics of Carefull Risk: Unsettling Research Through DIY Academic Archiving
In this article, we call for an inventive ethics of care-full risk for qualitative research. While methodological experimentation is widely welcomed across the social sciences, there is little talk of innovation in ethical principles and practice. We argue that research ethics is an 'invented tradition' (Hobsbawm 2012), which has become unquestioned convention. We take up the archiving and reuse of qualitative research data as a challenging, yet …
Heritage, Memory and the Politics of Identity: New Perspectives on the Cultural Landscape

Eco/feminist genealogies
This chapter traces the damaging effects of critiques of essentialism on eco/feminism, taking the palpable disappointment of the 1990s onward as a departure point for an exploration of histories of, and possible futures for, eco/feminism. It focuses on the ways in which eco/feminists described eco/feminism before the critique of essentialism became prevalent, pointing to accounts of eco/feminist diversity and the centrality the stories of global …
The Changing Nature of Eco/Feminism: Telling Stories from Clayoquot Sound
In the summer of 1993, activists set up a peace camp blocking a logging road into an extensive area of temperate rainforest in Clayoquot Sound that was slated for clear-cutting. Twenty years later, Clayoquot holds a prominent place in environmental discourse, yet it is not generally associated with feminist or eco/feminist movements. The Changing Nature of Eco/Feminism argues that Clayoquot offers a potent site for examining a whole range of femi…
Co-designing non-hierarchical community arts research: The collaborative stories spiral
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the potential and durability of arts practice as research through developing a new approach to arts research that challenges the conventional association between dominant constructions of community and dominant modes of research. Design/methodology/approach – A co-design approach, situated in arts practice, has been used to generate a conceptual framework that offers potential to open up the worki…
Growing intimate privatepublics: Everyday utopia in the naturecultures of a young lesbian and bisexual women's allotment
The Young Women's Group in Manchester is a 'young women's peer health project, run by and for young lesbian and bisexual women', which runs an allotment as one of its activities. At a time when interest in allotments and gardening appears to be on the increase, the existence of yet another community allotment may seem unremarkable. Yet we suggest that this queer allotment poses challenges for conventional theorisations of allotments, as well as f…
Everyday ethics in community-based participatory research
This article explores a range of ethical issues that arise in community-based participatory research (CBPR), drawing on literature and examples from practice. The experience of CBPR practitioners adds further weight to the growing critique by many other social researchers of regulatory approaches to research ethics (which focus on rule following in accordance with research governance frameworks, codes of conduct and ethics review procedures). Yet…

The politics and ethics of naming: Questioning anonymisation in (archival) research
Anonymity is often taken-for-granted as an ethical necessity. Discussions around reuse of qualitative data have added further weight to its importance for protecting research participants from unknown future use of data. Yet, anonymisation also compromises the possibilities of future reuse. This paper argues that default anonymisation forecloses discussion of the ethics of naming; it calls for a reorientation of debate, away from an assumption of…

Mapping the Journey Toward Self-Authorship in Geography
Learning is a developmental journey, and geography curriculum plays a key role in supporting student progression. In this article, we argue that the concept of ‘self-authorship’ is a useful guiding principle in supporting curriculum revision and reform. A series of international case studies illustrate how self-authorship can be enacted in different ways within geography curricula in a range of contexts. The role of a range of collaborators and t…
Eco/feminism and rewriting the ending of feminism: From the Chipko movement to Clayoquot Sound
This article draws on research at an eco/feminist peace camp set up to facilitate blockades against clear-cut logging in coastal temperate rainforest in Clayoquot Sound on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, in Canada in the early 1990s. The camp was said to be based on feminist principles and sometimes these were even articulated as eco/feminist principles. The slippage between these terms provides a focus for my discussion. Specifically the art…
Teaching for Better Learning: A Blended Learning Pilot Project with First-Year Geography Undergraduates
Internationally, recognition is growing that the transition between post-primary and higher education is raising a number of challenges for both students and educators. Simultaneously with growing class sizes, resources have become more constrained and there is a new set of expectations from the “net generation” (Mohanna, 2007, p. 211) The use of e-learning in medical education, Postgraduate Medical Journal, 83, p. 211). Within this transforming …
Introduction: Rethinking Qualitative and Quantitative Methods
This article introduces the symposium issue on `Narrative, Numbers and Socio-Cultural Change'.The articles were all papers presented initially at the conference `Narrative, Numbers and Social Change' at the University of Manchester, UK in November 2007.The conference was organized through the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) funded Centre for Research on Socio-Cultural Change (CRESC). Methodological issues have been central to CRESC si…
The Rise and Rise of Ecofeminism as a Development Fable: A Response to Melissa Leach's ‘Earth Mothers and Other Ecofeminist Fables: How a Strategic Notion Rose and Fell’
This contribution offers a response to Melissa Leach's paper ‘Earth Mothers and Other Ecofeminist Fables: How a Strategic Notion Rose and Fell’, published in an earlier issue of Development and Change . Leach's article examined the rise and fall of the figure of ‘woman as natural environmental carer’ in environment and development discourses. Specifically, it appeared concerned with the role of ‘the northern ecofeminist’ in popularizing this figu…
Debating Eco/Feminist Natures: Response to Commentaries by Stacy Alaimo and Catriona Mortimer-Sandilands
Eco/Feminism, Non-Violence and the Future of Feminism
This article turns to an eco/feminist peace camp of the early 1990s in order to revisit the often passionate and troubled debates in feminism about pacifism, non-violence, maternalism and essentialism. Many readings of feminist peace activism, and eco/feminism, have collapsed a complicated politics into simple manifestations of maternalism, while at the same time reducing maternalism to essentialism. In this process essentialism has been invoked …
(Re)Using Qualitative Data
Recent interest by social scientists in the questions posed by reusing qualitative data has been prompted by two related events. The first is the establishment of the Qualitative Data Archival Resource Centre (QUALIDATA, and, since 2003, ESDS Qualidata) at the University of Essex in 1994. The second is the publication of the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) Datasets Policy (1996) which asks that those in receipt of ESRC grants offer co…
The Contexts of Context: Broadening Perspectives in the (Re)Use of Qualitative Data
Questions of ‘context’ are one of the central issues on which debates about re-using qualitative data pivot. Advocates of reuse propose guidelines about how much and what kind of context to include when archiving qualitative data. Sceptics are concerned about the possibility of ever including enough context. The difficulty, if not impossibility, of accessing the context of the production of the original qualitative data is often the issue on whic…

Ecofeminism as Third Wave Feminism? Essentialism, Activism and the Academy
This chapter provides a critical reflection on third wave feminism from an eco/feminist perspective.1 Beginning with a brief sketch of eco/feminism, it focuses on tensions between eco/feminism and (other) feminisms. Questioning whether ecofeminism reproduces essentialist accounts of 'women' and 'nature' which reify both, it provides a more challenging reconfiguration of these categories.2 Ecofeminist attention to the gendered politics of 'nature'…
