QUALITATIVE INQUIRY IN THE PUBLIC SPHERE

Qualitative Inquiry in the Public Sphere examines the relationships between public scholarship, the research marketplace, and the politics of higher education.

It is written from the perspective that higher education is under attack from multiple sides, both political and economic; that academics reside in a precarious position, one fraught with accountability metrics, funding pressures, and spiralling bureaucracy; and that scientific knowledge itself is increasingly contentious in public. These internal and external pressures have fundamentally transformed the public sphere of higher education from one of rational public discourse by and for the public good to one of private market relations and strategic research decisions. In turn, these transformations have fundamentally altered what it means to be a productive scholar within this spacealtered what it means to be a public researcher in this space.

Leading international voices from the United States, Canada, Germany, the United Kingdom, and Norway collectively present a forceful rebuke to such developments, raising a clarion call to action on topics ranging from scholarly publishing, audit culture, and the privatization of public knowledge to Indigenous, arts-based, and collaborative research methods.

Qualitative Inquiry in the Public Sphere is a must-read for faculty and students alike interested in the politics of being a public researcherof conducting research in and influencing dialogue in the public sphere.

Norman K. Denzin is Distinguished Emeritus Professor of Communications, College of Communications Scholar, and Research Professor of Communications, Sociology, and Humanities at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA.

Michael D. Giardina is Professor of Media, Politics, and Physical Culture in the Department of Sport Management at Florida State University, USA.

The quality of scholarship introduced at the annual International Congress of Qualitative Inquiry is consistently innovative, provocative, and scholarly. This collection of papers represents some of the finest work of international scholars who attended the 13th annual Congress and proposed how to use qualitative inquiry and the different systems of thought that differently shape it to resist the alarming politics of the global right. At once affirmative and urgent, this book serves as inspiration and a call to political action.

Elizabeth Adams St. Pierre, Professor of Critical Studies, Educational
Theory and Practice Department, University of Georgia, USA

The International Congress of Qualitative Inquiry (ICQI) continues to be a major intervention into the ethics and politics of social research. Responding to a felt need for a high quality forum to debate issues of theory, method and social justice, this latest volume of papers from the Congress reflects on the development of the research-enterprise nexus in universities and our own complicity in the development of a research marketplace. It calls for a focus on the competition of ideas rather than products, and for wider engagement with communities and constituencies which should benefit from the processes and findings of qualitative research.

We thank Hannah Shakespeare, and Matt Bickerton at Routledge for their support of this volume and the larger ICQI project. Thanks are also due to Quentin Scott for expert copyediting, Natasha Gibbs for production design, and Neal Ternes for assistance in compiling the index. Many of the chapters in this book were presented as plenary or keynote addresses at the Thirteenth International Congress of Qualitative Inquiry, held at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, in May 2017. We thank the Institute of Communications Research, the College of Media, and the International Institute for Qualitative Inquiry for continued support of the Congress as well as those campus units that contributed time, funds, and/or volunteers to the effort.

The Congress, and by extension this book, would not have materialized without the tireless efforts of Mary Blair, Katia Curbelo, Bryce Henson, Robin Price, and James Salvo (the glue who continues to hold the whole thing together).

Where to even begin?

Donald Trump. Brexit. Acts of terrorism in Europe. Syrian civil war. Global refugee crises. Gun violence and mass shootings in the United States. Horrifying hurricane damage in Florida, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. Nuclear threats by North Korea. The ongoing denial of climate change and scientific knowledge. And these are just the above-the-fold storylines that have carried the day over the last 18 months, to say nothing of cyber attacks on critical digital systems and infrastructure, ethnic cleansing in Myanmar, widespread corporate and political corruption, and global economic uncertainty. Without question, we are allto different degrees and extentssituated within and against a world that is seemingly on edge, crying out for help, unraveling at the seams. It provokes us to ask, once again, about our role in the worldabout how as qualitative researchers we might go about effecting change.
