Positioned within and against our changing pandemic conditions, Global Shifts in Qualitative Inquiry delves into the intricate web of multidirectional pathways that connect and intertwine moments, formations, and interpretive communities within qualitative research. Contributors, driven by a steadfast commitment to a critical, performative, and social justice-oriented inquiry, explore a diverse array of prevailing and emerging approaches that are unified by their pursuit of method as praxis, method as a catalyst for social change, and method as a means to bring about transformative change in the world through the creation of compelling texts that inspire action, bridge personal struggles to public institutions, and challenge oppressive systems.

Within this rich tapestry of approaches, one finds art as research, story as research, collage as method, performance, posthumanism, Indigenous methods, and the use of absurdity as a tool to counter oppression. Global Shifts in Qualitative Inquiry resonates deeply with faculty and students alike who are eager to forge new directions for qualitative inquiry in our ever-evolving pandemic times. By delving into the complexities of these multidirectional pathways, the book offers valuable insights and perspectives that will inspire and empower researchers to navigate the challenges and opportunities of our time with renewed vigor and purpose.
