  1. 1. How to fail successfully: the struggles of PAR within academia

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Filosofiska fakulteten; Linköpings universitet/Tema Genus

    Author : Dimitra Moustaka; [2023]
    Keywords : Participatory action research PAR ; decolonial research; asylum interview; coloniality of the academy; intersectionality; self-reflectivity;

    Abstract : This research seeks to explore the origins and values of participatory action research, as well as its role in transforming possibilities to knowledge production and shaping equal relationships between research participants. Drawing from the theoretical frameworks of intersectionality and decoloniality and with a focus on the experience of the asylum interview, the research seeks to explore the ways that those epistemological paradigms intertwine with participatory research to deconstruct the dichotomy between researcher and research subject (expert/community) and re-balance the power differentials embedded within academia, canonical knowledge production and traditional research methodologies, to initiate change.

    Abstract : The thesis focuses on the use of social mix policies within the framework of Denmark's public housing system and their impact on economic connectedness and upward mobility for low-income, vulnerable beneficiaries. By conducting a meta-ethnographic review, the research aims to examine a total of six key ethnographic studies on the implementation of social mix strategies, with a view to generating a new, comprehensive conceptualisation of their contribution to socioeconomic mobility outcomes.
