The Complexity of Relationships in Action Research

The relationship between researchers and research is of great importance to action researchers. It is usually characterized as dialogical, recognizing the competencies of both groups of actors involved. But in theory as well as in practice, it appears to be a very complex issue. The aim of this third book of the Dutch Action Research Network is to discuss a number of aspects related to that complexity. A great mixture of experiences, new insights, concepts and methodological devices is presented. In the last part of this book, a number of methodological issues are analyzed. The book ends with some general conclusions about the strategic role of adequate relationships in action research.

Communication and the Human Condition

Starting with the premise that we live in communication (rather than standing outside communication and using it for secondary purposes), Pearce claims that people who live in various cultures and historical epochs not only communicate differently but experience different ways of being human because they communicate differently. This century, he notes, ushered in the "communication revolution," the discovery that communication is far more important and central to the human condition than ever before realized. Essential to the communication revolution is the recognition that multiple forms of discourse exist in contemporary human society. Further, these forms of discourse are not benign; they comprise alternative ways of being human. Thus communication theory must encompass all that it "means to live a life, the shape of social institutions and cultural traditions, the pragmatics of social action, and the poetics of social order."

Every time the masses tried to advise the government about what needed to be
done, or what government projects were not working, the government scolded
them for not doing enough. No wonder the masses have learned to be
dependent on the central government for development! Although the
communication perspective does not suggest a clear-cut solution to the problem
of development in India, it does explain an otherwise enigmatic result of forty
years of development work.
