Critical ICT4D (Information and Communication Technologies for Development)
The edited volume Critical ICT4D highlights the need for a paradigm change in theorising, designing, and researching Information and Communication Technologies for Development (ICT4D).Engaging authors from the Majority World and entering a process of restoring epistemic justice in knowledge production and ownership, the text:Reflects on the histories and narratives around development programmes, their deep-rooted socio-political background, and the power relations integrated into or induced by such measuresProblematises the current scholarship and practices through decolonial and pluralistic approaches built with an explicit perspective of resisting epistemic violenceConstructs justice-enacting engagements of technologies with society. Offering thematic discussions in many development sectors with up-to-date case studies informed by recent research in the field, it sheds light on constructive contributions of critical ICT4D research.Written in accessible language, the book will appeal to postgraduate students, fellow researchers, policymakers in the fields of sociology, development studies, STS, critical data studies, surveillance studies, international relations, public administration, and information systems.

Transforming Qualitative Information : Thematic Analysis and Code Development
Thematic analysis, a process for encoding qualitative information can be thought of as a bridge between the language of qualitative research and the language of quantitative research.Author Richard E. Boyatzis helps researchers understand thematic analysis a process that is a part of many qualitative methods and provides clear guidelines about learning to develop techniques to apply it to one's own research.Transforming Qualitative Information shows how to sense themes, the first step in analyzing information as well as how to develop codes, through the use of numerous examples from myriad research settings.Research design issues that are essential to rigorous and high-quality use of qualitative information are addressed, such as identifying, sampling, scoring and scaling, and reliability.This original volume confronts the debate between positivist and postmodernist looking at the research act in an innovative and fresh way.Boyatzis argues for an ecumenical approach to doing research.His book will be invaluable to researchers across a broad spectrum of disciplines and approaches.
