Beyond Binaries in Education Research

This book seeks to explore the ethical, methodological, and social justice questions that arise in education research that is founded on conceptualizations of binary opposites. In education research these dualisms may include ability-disability, academic-vocational, adult-child, domestic-foreign, formal and informal learning, health-illness, majority-minority, male-female, practitioner-educator, public-private, qualitative-quantitative research, research-practice, researcher-participant, sedentary-itinerant, West-East, and young-old.
