Abstract
This themed issue offers seven examples of upscaling community transformation, a rich opportunity for action research (AR) to contribute to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #17: re-vitalize global partnerships. Covid-19 has revealed anew the structural and political relationships that deepen inequality and hobble human flourishing. Local organizing around antiracist and anticolonial agendas, climate justice, and caring capitalism is at unprecedented and inspiring scales worldwide, yet history shows how gains erode over long periods of time:
期刊介绍:
Action Research is a new international, interdisciplinary, refereed journal which is a forum for the development of the theory and practice of action research. Our purpose with this international, peer reviewed journal is to offer a forum for participative, action oriented inquiry into questions that matter--questions relevant to people in the conduct of their lives, that enable them to flourish in their organizations and communities, and that evince a deep concern for the wider ecology. The aim of the journal is to offer a viable alternative to dominant "disinterested" models of social science, one that is relevant to people in the conduct of their lives, their organizations and their communities.
