Discuss how a specific scenario/theme/topic of an *imagined* project can be researched with a particular set of methods you have selected – and also, if possible, address how this particular research problem and accompanying research questions, or a key concept or theory, could inform the inquiry and support the chosen approach and questions.
IMPORTANT: THE IMAGINED PROJECT MUST FALL UNDER THE THEME OF DEVELOPMENT STUDIES (E.G. A FOCUS ON A SPECIFIC ISSUE IN THE GLOBAL SOUTH OR IN THE DEVELOPING WORLD).
2. Refer to academic methodology literature in the assignment based on a mini-literature review and make use of a few texts in addition to e.g. relevant encyclopedia entries and classic readings. Make use of at least one text (journal article, book chapter, or monograph) that goes beyond standard textbooks in research methodology.
3. Discuss the implications and ethics of the application of particular tools on particular themes and potential problems of your (imagined) project.
4. Engage with on which grounds you have chosen the selection of methods, for the particular scenario or project idea, as well as discuss alternative research method(s) you could have chosen and on what grounds you decided against it/them.
