Abstract
Description
Opinions create issues and issues generate controversies. This book presents the intricacies of this process and proposes issue mapping as a critical methodology to unravel bias. STS researchers have recently developed interest in grounded action research since such biases are produced in daily life. Thus, grounded participatory action research and issue mapping are related in that both perspectives aim to understand complex social issues by engaging with real-world situations and experiences. By combining these methodologies, the study aims to inspire collaborative knowledge commons in decentering top-down power mechanisms in education and science - a promising step towards active listening and unlearning for social transformation.
