IJAR \u2013 International Journal of Action Research<\/h3>\n

IJAR \u2013 International Journal of Action Research provides a forum for an open and non dogmatic discussion about action research, regarding both its present situation and future perspectives. This debate is open to the variety of action research concepts worldwide. The focus is on dialogues between theory and practice.<\/p>\n

The journal is interested in publishing papers from all over the world that address action research in organizational and work environments, territorial development and other forms of societal transformation \u2013 and intentionally strikes a balance among them. The journal is problem driven; it is centered on the notion that organizational, regional and other forms of social development should be understood as multidimensional processes and viewed from a broad socio-ecological, participative and societal perspective. The editorial board of IJAR welcomes self-studies, autoethnography, indigenous research and participatory and emancipatory methodologies as long as they are focused on dialogues between theory and practice.<\/p>\n

IJAR is a refereed journal and published three times a year.<\/p>\n
