ABSTRACT
Lather writing on postqualitative research, argues that “out of mutated dominant practices, through a convergence of practices of intensity and emergence, both practice and objects of a field are redefined and reconfigured”. Taylor offers that creating knowledge-making practices which are immanent, embodied, embedded, entangled and situated; which privilege indeterminacy, uncontainability, excess, multiplicity, and the happenstance; and which make space for the human alongside and with the nonhuman is a very real challenge. It requires making methodology anew with each research endeavour; it means attentiveness to the micro, to the instance, and to singularity; it is productive of multiplicity; and it is about entangled responsibility and accountability. For Lather, “out of mutated dominant practices, through a convergence of practices of intensity and emergence, both practice and objects of a field are redefined and reconfigured”.
