The lecture is themed “Creative Research” and discusses two ideas on how to produce interesting research. 1) Identify and articulate implicit assumptions within a field of knowledge and formulate opposite assumptions, and 2) Create and solve mysteries.
The lecture is based on the book “Kreativ forskning. Mysteriet som metod” (Alvesson, Kärreman, Liber 2012).
