“Bringing a different world into existence – Action Research as a trigger for
innovations” was the overarching theme and vision of the international CARN
Conference 2011 in Vienna. The chapters in this book are principally drawn from
contributions to this 2011 conference. These present narratives of the conduct of
action research from a range of different settings. The authors in these texts share
practical knowledge which has arisen from their work, and reflect on development
processes in schools, in teacher education and professional development, social work,
social pedagogy, health care and community development. This book therefore offers
what recent action research literature has been criticized for lacking, namely the first
person accounts of action researchers who have been endeavoring to change their
work and their context through the conduct of action research. This volume does not
limit itself to such first person accounts, and we have also assembled contributions
from people who, in their chapters, are seeking to set action research in a wider
context, who are exploring themes or issues which cross a range of applications of
action research or which draw out more generic issues.
