Why Embodied Research Methods Matter: Critical and Creative Approaches for Working with Migrant Women

This book explores and situates the concept of embodiment on the map of research methodologies at a moment when our definition of what counts as data in quantitative research is rapidly expanding. Grounded in feminist theory, it argues that we should give more consideration to what embodied research methods could look like, both offering a means to think pragmatically about intersectionality through embodiment and showing how embodied research is crucial for the deployment of noninvasive approaches to working with research participants in vulnerable situations.
