Issues of Validity in Openly Ideological Research: Between a Rock and a Soft Place

Abstract/Description

In this paper, I attempt to reconceptualize validity within the context of openly ideological research. The usefulness of this reconceptualization is tested by applying it to examples from three explicitly value-based research programs: feminist research, neo-Marxist critical ethnography, and Freirian "empowering" research. Finally, validity issues within research committed to a more equitable social order are discussed
