Doing critical research in information systems: some further thoughts

INFORMATION SYSTEMS JOURNAL, Issue 2 2005
Chrisanthi Avgerou
Abstract. In her paper in this volume, McGrath argues for more explicit methodological accounts of critical research in information systems. In this short paper, I voice my concern that emphasis on methodological accountability may well inhibit criticality, and I argue for the need to recognize that researchers bring into their investigation tacit knowledge, emotions, and moral and political convictions that cannot be rationalized in methodological descriptions. Moreover, I suggest that critical research should maintain suspicion to instrumental reasoning and that it should place its effort to producing knowledge on an alternative agenda of substantive social issues by the interplay of theory and empirical evidence.

Learning about being critical

INFORMATION SYSTEMS JOURNAL, Issue 2 2005
Geoff Walsham
Abstract. This short paper is a response to the article by McGrath in this issue which argues that information systems (IS) researchers need to be more explicit about ,being critical'. I accept her point, and I use this paper to offer a sketch of my personal journey in learning about criticality, and some thoughts from where I am now on various aspects of carrying out critical IS research.

Fair Trade and the consumer interest: a personal account

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CONSUMER STUDIES, Issue 4 2003
Nicholas J. Gould
Abstract Abject poverty and rampant consumerism are twin ills of global capitalism. This short paper serves to encourage discussion on the role of Fair Trade in healing those ills. After describing the benefits of Fair Trade for producers, a paradox concerning the joys and blights of contemporary consumption is presented. Drawing on an autoethnographic method, the author indicates how Fair Trade resolves this paradox in the consumer interest. [source]

A degree-two WR90 waveguide circulator using radial dielectric waveguide transformers

MICROWAVE AND OPTICAL TECHNOLOGY LETTERS, Issue 4 2003
M. Hocine
Abstract Most commercial degree-two waveguide circulators using gyromagnetic turnstile and post resonators are quarter-wave coupled by metal transformers. The purpose of this short paper is to experimentally describe one post-resonator geometry using a self-jigging, partially dielectric-loaded radial waveguide transformer. The assembly developed in this work has a return loss of 20 dB and an insertion loss of 0.20 dB over a bandwidth of approximately 12% in the WR90 waveguide. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Henry George Under the Microscope: Comments on "Henry George's Political Critics"

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF ECONOMICS AND SOCIOLOGY, Issue 5 2009
Article first published online: 20 OCT 200, Richard Giles
The annual supplement of the AJES for 2008 titled Henry George: Political Ideologue, Social Philosopher, and Economic Theorist had as its first and longest essay "Henry George's Political Critics" by Professor Michael Hudson. It offered a multitude of criticisms, most of which Prof. Hudson seemed to agree with. All purported to be criticisms of George as a political strategist, though some seem more to originate from Hudson's disagreement with theoretical positions George was bound to take. The purpose of this short paper is to show that Professor Hudson's long article fails to do what it seems intended to do. That is, it fails to show that trade unionists and especially socialists were "natural allies" of the Georgist movement, that it was George's fault that that they were not, and that George "allied" his movement irrevocably to "capital," rejecting its "natural allies."

Universal electrification: will the new electrification programme succeed in India?

OPEC ENERGY REVIEW, Issue 2 2006
Subhes C. Bhattacharyya
To redress the problem of poor electricity access in rural India, even after 50 years of sustained electrification effort has proved to be a challenging task. And in order to address this problem, India launched a massive rural electrification programme in April 2005 with an objective of achieving universal household electrification by 2012. This short paper discusses the issues facing this programme and suggests that unless the risks are carefully mitigated, the programme may not succeed in achieving its principal objectives. [source]

On the maximal value of the turbulent , -parameter in accretion discs

ASTRONOMISCHE NACHRICHTEN, Issue 7 2009
P. Abolmasov
Abstract In this short paper we show that making turbulence two-rather than three-dimensional may increase the effective turbulent viscosity by about 40 %. Dimensionless hydrodynamical viscosity parameters up to ,max = 0.25 Mt2 may be obtained in this approach, which are in better agreement with the observational data on non-stationary accretion than the values obtained in numerical simulations. However, the , -parameter values known from observations are still several times higher (© 2009 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim) [source]
