Synopsis: How can we analyse the intersectional effects of multiple factors on experiences of disenfranchisement? This book equips you with the methodological tools to uncover new insights. First providing a critical examination of long-standing methodologies in intersectionality research, it then shines a spotlight on analytical techniques such as qualitative comparative analysis, multilevel models, mediation and moderation, and mixed methods designs. With chapter objectives, real-world research examples, further reading and reflective questions, it will equip you with the methodological tools to understand intersectionality in specific social settings. The book: · Bridges the gap between intersectionality as a theory and an empirical research practice. · Extends existing approaches to analysing intersectionality in a traditionally qualitative field. · Inspires creativity and celebrates a variety of effective methods for studying intersectionality. Innovative and thought-provoking, this book is ideal for any student or researcher looking to harness the power of empirical evidence to explore inequality and injustice.
