This volume offers a vivid portrait of both theoretical perspectives and practical action research activity and related benefits around the globe, white attending to the cultural, political, social, historical, and ecological contexts that localize, shape, and characterize action research. Consisting of teachers, youth workers, counselors, nurses, community developers, artists, ecologists, farmers, settlement-dwellers, students, professors, and intellectual-activists on every continent and at every edge of the globe, the movement sustained and inspired by this community was born of the efforts of intellectual-activists in the mid-twentieth century specifically : Orlando Fats Borda, Paulo Freire, Myles Norton, and Kurt Lewin.
This handbook addresses cross-national issues of networking, as well as the challenges, tensions, and issues associated with the transformative power of action research. Finally, it sets a global action research agenda and map for readers to consider as they embark on new projects.
