Representing 'others': avoiding the reproduction of unequal social relations in research.
In this paper, the final one in a series of four articles on post-colonial research, Tam Truong Donnelly argues that some researchers have represented 'Others' in ways that tend to reproduce unequal social relations. Researchers undertaking cross-cultural studies must recognise how meanings are constructed in and through systems of representation, the article concludes.
