Abstract: The presentation addresses how to do more imaginative and creative research. The focus on how to not be stuck in and simply reduce dominant assumptions, ideas and vocabulary, but challenge (well-picked parts of) these and come up with novel starting points for doing research. One aspect here is the re-consideration of images of various elements in the research process. The seminar is based on Alvesson & Sandberg: Constructing Research Questions (Sage 2013) and Re-imagining the Research Process (Sage 2021).
