Reflexive and Reflective Research Approaches in Applied Linguistics

Reflexive and Reflective Research Approaches in Applied Linguistics moves the field of Applied Linguistics into new methodological territory. Applying both the newer reflexive methodologies of currere and duoethnography as well as the more established methodologies of autoethnography and narrative to the broad field of Applied Linguistics, international authors in the field examine the affordances, limitations, and ethical challenges and benefits of these methodologies to Applied Linguistics from multiple perspectives. A parallel structure in the book encourages the reader to critically compare and contrast the uses of these methodologies within Applied Linguistics.
