"A central question for a researcher with interactive ambitions is to what
extent the research concerned can support development at the same time
as distance and a critical attitude are maintained. In this article I will show
how the interactive research approach has made it possible to create new
knowledge together with the participants, in a situation in which closeness
itself was largely the factor that enabled the participants to accept reflections
and criticism, and to exercise self-criticism when reviewing their
activities. The learning of the participants enabled them to move beyond
common sense, and to jointly acquire and develop knowledge in the research
process. This article will show how the interactive research process
made the situation of young people an item on the municipal agenda, and
how the knowledge gained came to be expressed both in discussion and in
political decisions." (author's abstract)... view less
