Description

Politics of Social Research by Routledge explores the complex relationship between social scientists and the government agencies that fund their work. This book examines the ethics and behavior expected of researchers when conducting studies sponsored by domestic or international government bodies. The text challenges the idea that social scientists should automatically serve government interests as a matter of patriotism. Instead, it investigates the tension created when massive government funding threatens the independence of research. It addresses why practitioners may hesitate to work with these agencies, ranging from fundamental disagreements with specific government policies to the broader risks of losing academic autonomy. This book provides a deep look into the professional dilemmas faced by those in the field of anthropology and sociology. It is an essential resource for understanding how political influence and financial support shape the landscape of modern social science research.
