Call for Chapter Ideas for a Book on Performative Social Science





I am retiring at the end of February from Bournemouth University. My plan is to do some writing that I have been meaning to get to for some time.  One of the discussions with a publisher is a book about Performative Social Science.

More a doer than a talker, I would like this potential book to be about DOING Performative Social Science (perhaps even the title?). As a subtext possibly: “Creativity in doing research and communicating it to an audience”.  The creativity could be inspiration from any of the arts; that audience can be readers, users, viewers, listeners, participants, communities, etc.

At this early stage, I would be interested in hearing ideas for contributions from you for Chapters for the book. Your Chapter should be an example of how you have used the wide principles of PSS and its aesthetic (https://www.researchgate.net/publication/294887963_Performative_Social_Sciencein a project of your own – be it research, dissemination, performance, exhibition, community action, publication, etc.

If you would like your idea to be considered in my discussions with the publisher, please send me a short email with your thoughts (nothing too formal yet), and perhaps the area of the arts that informs it.
