Reconstructing narrative: A new paradigm for narrative research and practice
In: Narrative inquiry: a forum for theoretical, empirical, and methodological work on narrative, Band 22, Heft 1, S. 147-154
Abstract
On the basis of a thorough comparative analysis of the Forum contributions to the last issue of "Narrative Inquiry" (21:2), it is possible to focus on some patterns which indicate the development of a new paradigm in this field of study and practice. These patterns lead us to understand narrative as co-constructed, dialogical, educational. ethical, multi-perspectival, relational, political, provisional, social and situational and place it in a non exclusive confrontation with other forms of meaning making within the different fields of human experience.
