Research Methods in Deportation The Power-Knowledge Approach Edited by Agnieszka Radziwinowiczówna, University of Warsaw, Poland ‘In their timely collection on ethics and methodology in deportation studies, the editors and authors have succeeded in setting new standards. In a conceptually sophisticated way, the contributions inquire into issues around power and positionality in the research process around enforced removals and assisted voluntary returns. This sophisticated account is bound to become an essential guide for understanding the importance of the power-knowledge nexus not only in migration studies but also in qualitative methodology.’ – Thomas Faist, Bielefeld University, Germany Feb 2024 c 208 pp Hardback 978 1 0353 1310 5 c £90.00 / c $130.00 eBook • Elgaronline Handbook of Social Impact Assessment and Management Edited by Frank Vanclay, University of Groningen and Ana Maria Esteves, Community Insights Group, the Netherlands and Visiting Professor, University of Strathclyde, Scotland ‘This book is a wonderful resource for any ESG or development practitioner. It provides both a comprehensive overview of SIA and a focused analysis of key issues. In particular, the editors have taken great care to differentiate by project type, stakeholder group, and project phase, helping to disentangle the complexity of SIA in practice. The book never loses sight of the core purpose of SIA: to appropriately assess and manage the social impacts of projects, thereby contributing to more sustainable and equitable outcomes. It is therefore an essential contribution to better project management and, hopefully, to the well-being of affected communities. The diverse representation of contributors makes this handbook a truly global reference.’ – Philipp Koenig, Head of Dispute Resolution Complaints Mechanism of the EIB Group Mar 2024 c 608 pp Hardback 978 1 80220 886 3 c £235.00 / c $340.00 eBook • Elgaronline Research Handbooks on Impact Assessment series NEW IN PAPERBACK How to Conduct Qualitative Research in Social Science Edited by Pranee Liamputtong, VinUniversity, Vietnam Explaining both the theoretical and practical aspects of doing qualitative research, the book uses examples from real-world research projects to emphasise how to conduct qualitative research in the social sciences.
