  • expanding the boundaries of sport media research using Critical theory to explore consumer responses to representations of women s sports
    Journal of Sport Management, 2011
    Co-Authors: Mary Jo Kane, Heather D Maxwell
    Abstract:

    In 2005, the Journal of Sport Management printed Wendy Frisby’s Earle F. Zeigler Lecture. The main thrust of Frisby’s presentation was that Critical Social Science is an underutilized framework for conducting research in sport management and that, as a result, we remain limited in our abilities to truly understand how institutions and organizations “are best viewed as operating in a wider cultural, economic, and political context characterized by asymmetrical power relations that are historically entrenched” (2005, p.1). Other scholars such as Cunningham and Fink (2006) reinforced the importance of doing this kind of Critical work. In their review of key research findings in sport management literature related to issues of diversity they concluded that the vast majority of studies “operated from the paradigm of positivism” and thus our field “could benefit from an incorporation of different investigative paradigms” (p. 458). Finally, Shaw and Frisby (2006) called for an embrace of Critical theoretical fra...

  • complementary and alternative medicine in nursing and midwifery towards a Critical Social Science
    2014
    Co-Authors: Jon Adams, Philip Tovey
    Abstract:

    Nurses and midwives are increasingly faced with such issues as: should complementary therapies be developed and encouraged in nursing and midwifery practice? Should integration be in cooperation with private CAM therapists? What will it mean for the professional identities, territories and roles of nursing and midwifery and how will it affect the medical-nursing/midwifery power relationship? The book will explore the historical, Social, political and cultural facets of integration between complementary and alternative medicine and nursing/midwifery. It will explore this ever-expanding integration in relation to: the role and conceptualization of the patient the role and responsibilities of different professional health care providers (nurses, midwives, alternative therapists, etc) the future provision and approach of nursing and midwifery practice the challenges and opportunities currently facing health care systems as a result of integration. This innovative book provides the first Critical overview of this important field of health research. It is important reading for medical sociologists, nurses and other health professionals - as well as students in these areas - with an interest in complementary and alternative medicine.

  • integration in primary health care a focus upon practice and education and the importance of a Critical Social Science perspective
    Primary Health Care and Complementary and Integrative Medicine: Practice and Research, 2013
    Co-Authors: Jon Adams, Daniel Hollenberg, Alex Broom, Amie Steel, David Sibbritt, Chiwai Lui
    Abstract:

    In this chapter we argue that the mainstream work and commentary around integrative health care and education has often lacked a Critical Social Science perspective. We introduce the framework of a Critical Social Science perspective and explain how this perspective could be applied to the study of integrative health care (IHC) and integrative health education (IHE). Initially, we outline the popular models of IHC and their limitationsand explore a Critical Social Science perspective relating to such IHC practice and models. In the latter half of this chapter attention is then turned to examining key issues around IHE with the aim of presenting both a Critical discussion of the principal theoretical ideas as well as an overview of the state-of-play of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) in medical education. We first turn our attention below to describing the main tenets of a Critical Social Science perspective.

  • a Critical Social Science of evidence based healthcare
    2012
    Co-Authors: Alex Broom, Jon Adams
    Abstract:

    In many respects evidence-based healthcare is neither new nor are its philosophical underpinnings unique. Getting the best knowledge to the right people in a timely fashion is commonsense. Yet, this basic principle reflects a broader Social movement in knowledge production and dissemination that has been emerging for centuries. Scientific inquiry, as it were, has become more systematic, globally connected and protocol driven over the course of the twentieth century. While scientific discoveries in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries still often occurred in the context of a sole or renegade researcher/practitioner, the latter part of the twentieth century witnessed the global streamlining, enhanced connectivity and dramatic institutionalisation of scientific knowledge production. This fundamentally changed the way both Science and medicine were practiced in terms of research priorities and practice guidelines. While changes were occurring within the scientific community more broadly, 'modern' medicine, given its prominence in the community, became centre stage in this broader Social movement and philosophical shift toward regulation, abstraction and systematisation in research and clinical practice. As the systematisation ofhealthcare developed and matured over the last few decades of the twentieth century we saw the institutional emergence of'evidence-based medicine' (EBM), followed by 'evidence-based practice' (EBP), and then many other evidence-based models in the health and Social care professions. This book is about these movements -which we put under the umbrella of 'evidence-based healthcare' (EBHC) -and setting a broad sociological platform from which to understand how these new knowledge technologies impact upon the practice of health care.

  • contextualizing integration a Critical Social Science approach to integrative health care
    Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics, 2009
    Co-Authors: Jon Adams, Daniel Hollenberg, Chiwai Lui, Alex Broom
    Abstract:

    This article argues for the importance of examining the phenomenon of integrative health care in broader Social and historical contexts. The authors examine mainstream approaches to identify patterns of integrative medicine and criticize them for their neglect of clashes among different philosophical paradigms and the wider Social contexts that govern health care in practice. The authors outline a framework and highlight the values of a Critical Social Science perspective in deepening our understanding of recent transformations in health care practice and issues surrounding biomedicine and complementary/alternative medicine (including chiropractic, naturopathy, massage, acupuncture/oriental medicine, etc) and traditional medicine. A Critical Social Science perspective pays special attention to complex power relations, inclusionary/exclusionary strategies, and interprofessional dynamics in medicine. Drawing upon recent research findings, the authors illustrate how such a perspective reveals the intricacies and tensions that surround the integration of different paradigms of health care practice. The authors summarize the importance of situating integrative health care in structural contexts and affirm their commitment to a Critical Social Science approach.
