Social Science Research and Theory Development
Empirical data is one of the cornerstones of knowledge in the social sciences. This revealing account of the theory-data relationship calls this faith in data into question and establishes a reflexive framework and vocabulary to explore the creative, political and philosophical elements of data production.Rather than thinking about the theory-data ′fit′, Alvesson and Karreman will encourage you to consider the research process as one of theory-data interplay, asking if creative empirical material can challenge established theory and inspire new lines of development, and if breakdowns and mysteries encountered in research can be a constructive rather than destructive process.They will encourage you to think And yet, the researcher often takes it for granted, reserving his or her imaginative faculties for finding a theory that fits the data.
