Dark Inquiries

Abstract

(Methodological) darkness returns. Metodologisen pimeyden elementit kutsuvat laadulliseen tutkimukseen. Hesitant dark inquiries sensitize qualitative scholars toward relationality, whereas living dark futures may stimulate various contextual practices and situational inquiry processes. Metodologisen pimeyden moninaisuus ja hetkellinen läheisyys aktivoivat tutkijaa ja tutkimusprosesseja. In this article, dark and darkness, in their different affective, geographical, processual, linguistic, cultural, and relational forms, connects with qualitative inquiry, methodological processes, and ways of living and knowing.
