Interdisciplinarities Summary

Interdisciplinarities: Research Process, Method, and the Body of Law by Didi Herman

This book illuminates methodology in legal research by bringingtogether interdisciplinary scholars, whoemploy a diverse set of methodologies,to address a specificshared research challenge: the body. The contributors were asked a question: if you were invited to contribute to an edited bookon the body, where would you start and then where would you go?The result isa self-reflective discussion of how and where researchers engage with methodological practices.The contributors draw on their own interdisciplinary research experiences to explore how the body might be addressed in their work, and the resources they would deploy in order to carry out the task.This book within a book is innovative in both content and format.It provides a rare insight into how top interdisciplinary legal scholars go about making decisions about their research.The shared device of the body allows the volume to trace a number of rich approaches into theprocessof research as practiced by these diverse scholars. In presenting thinking and research in action, the volume offers a new, self-reflective view on the much-addressed theme of the body, as well as taking a fresh approach to the historically vexed problem of research methodology in legal studies.
