Abstract

Abstract

In the context of the question concerning the gap between theory and practice, the author explores another approach of educational research, distinctive from the dominant discourse in contemporary education theory; an approach inspired by Donna Haraway’s reception of Ursula LeGuin’s carrier bag theory of fiction. Alongside the techno-scientific discourse of calculation and control – which is like hunting with a spear – another practice of doing research is highlighted, oriented toward connectedness, response-ability and ongoingness in the living practice of education. It is called a carrier bag approach to doing research, as it is practiced in anthropological and phenomenological traditions.
