ebook Searching for Identity

Wydawca: Wydawnictwa Uniwersytetu Warszawskiego

Rok wydania: 2021

This volume is dedicated to the International PhD Program “Searching for Identity: Global Challenges, Local Traditions,” organized at the Faculty of “Artes Liberales” of the University of Warsaw, in 2013–2018. The volume aims at showing identity as a processual concept, using the example of the researcher as a living personality. It thus corresponds with the general trend in the humanities and social sciences to pay attention to the researcher and the ways his or her personal background and experience influence the generation of knowledge. By introducing this topic, we would like to show completing a PhD, or any other research, as a dynamic process with a personal history of success and failure, as well as to demonstrate the impact of the “Searching for Identity” project.

Poszukiwanie tożsamości. Osobiste doświadczenia i refleksje metodologiczne

Niniejszy tom poświęcony jest Międzynarodowemu Programowi Doktoranckiemu „W poszukiwaniu tożsamości: globalne wyzwania, lokalne tradycje”, organizowanego na Wydziale „Artes Liberales” Uniwersytetu Warszawskiego w latach 2013–2018. Tom ma na celu ukazanie tożsamości jako koncepcji procesualnej na przykładzie badacza jako żywej osobowości. Koresponduje to zatem z ogólnym trendem w naukach humanistycznych i społecznych, by zwracać uwagę na badacza oraz na sposób, w jaki jego osobiste pochodzenie i doświadczenie wpływają na generowanie wiedzy. Wprowadzając ten temat, chcielibyśmy pokazać ukończenie doktoratu lub jakichkolwiek innych badań jako dynamiczny proces z osobistą historią sukcesów i porażek, a także zademonstrować wpływ projektu „Poszukiwanie tożsamości”.
