Riassunto:

“A testimony to the very human processes, the need for authentic connection, in effective action research…” - Ernie Stringer. The Cookbook — along with the companion Resource Guide — shares from inside the world and work of Action Researchers. It shows how this democratizing, people centered, orientation to inquiry & practice is helping to create a more just and sustainable world. We want to make Action Research consciousness more accessible. “There is striking coherence here in the way Action Research unlocks frozen and counterproductive organizations…” - Davydd Greenwood. In a world primed to need action research, much of the published work remains unavailable - book costs too high, so too the walls created by scholarly norms for writing. This book, and the global movement it represents, wants to be more popular, more accessible. The authors, all advanced action researchers, convened as the institutional founders of AR+ , came together in 2016 to learn with and from each other across boundaries of all sorts. Working on individual shoe-strings, we decided to tie our shoe strings together! We share the stories of our work to invite others to be inspired, learn some practical ways to enrich practice and join with us. We dare to hope that the next Cookbooks will include new colleagues and more inter-generational sharing, accomplishing more good together. “Compliments to the chef and the international kitchen in sharing how the core ingredients of action research – participation, action, research, transformation and reflexivity – provide a rich array of ingredients and accounts of practice from different settings. As it is for all cooks, the challenge now is to create our own recipes from our own mixing of these ingredients and deliver the nourishment of participation and transformation in our universe.” - Bill Torbert “This book is eclectic and playful. Its diversity in both style and content gives a glimpse into the many Action Research recipes that are possible. I like the focus on the conversational and the relational. It speaks well to the relationship between first, second and third person action research and to the important balance between planned organisation and improvisation.” - Professor Danny Burns
