Imaginative Methodologies in the Social Sciences: Creativity, Poetics and Rhetoric in Social Research

by Michael Hviid Jacobsen, Anders Petersen, Michael S. Drake

Book Overview

Challenging the mainstream orthodoxy of social scientific methodology, which closely guards the boundaries between the social sciences and the arts and humanities, this volume reveals that authors and artists are often engaged in projects parallel to those of the social sciences and vice versa, thus demonstrating that artistic and cultural production does not necessarily constitute a specialist field, but is in fact integral to social reality.
