	abstract = {This paper focuses on the process and theory of action-research for transformation (ART) targeting individual transformation as a required means for global change. Addressing the lack of a practical framework to organize and report transformation, we conceptualise, identify and demonstrate an approach by linking ART with Interiority and Constructive Development Theory. Interiority focuses on the individual's sense-making as it relates to the sensed world and provides direction for data to be collected. Crucially, the individual's capacity for sense-making impacts how data are identified, experienced, interpreted and evaluated. It is shifts in this capacity that constitute fundamental transformation required to better handle complexity and ambiguity - intrinsic to ART. We propose Constructive Developmental Interiority (CDI) that provides a lens to recognise, analyse and frame constructive developmental shifts. Two case studies are presented in which researchers engaged in applying CDI for transformation. Both cases highlight, through first-person action-research and reflexive collaboration, that although the will to address developmental transformational challenges was an espoused motivation, its misalignment with the capacities for transformative change is always a possibility. Applying CDI reveals the nature of the challenge (time, effort and support), how transitions were made, and the potential for transformational impact.},

	abstract = {The theory and practice of communicative space is explored through three select action research studies from a past edition of Action Research, that focus on the practice of "opening communicative space" in action research. In an examination of these studies, a story is told of how the emancipatory interests of the marginalized (i.e. African-American students in public schools, the Aged in healthcare, and the Roma people of northeastern Hungary) can be realized through the opening and emergence of communicative spaces throughout the action research process. This story is told through successive themes that include the expectations and interests of action researchers, the challenges that they encountered once the action research process was underway, and finally, their reflective observations upon new communicative spaces that had emerged. While theoretical perspectives on communicative space are considered, such as the social theory of Jurgen Habermas, this article looks especially to the practical framework of William Isaacs on "Fields of Conversation" to understand how the opening of communicative spaces contributes to the emancipatory interests of action research.},

	abstract = {The article reports on research conducted in a public, specialised mental health and substance abuse service unit in Norway. The inquiry followed an action research framework, with patients, leaders and staff as co-researchers. Power sharing within such constrained institutions suggests that service providers risk engaging in paternalistic or avoidance approaches. Despite the inherent challenges of attempting a participative approach on an equal footing, facilitating service co-production may be served by mediation and support. Here, developing meeting spaces for dialogue between patients, staff and leaders appears vital. We argue that focussing on service providers' own professional development may be benefiting to co-production. We propose steps to unlock the potential of genuine co-production partnerships in constrained organisational settings when staff and leaders have no prior experience involving patients systematically in service development.},

	abstract = {Urban regeneration has presented new opportunities and alternative routes of development for historical and marginalized communities in Taipei, while strategically avoiding wholesale renewal demolition of existing urban fabrics. Yet the neo-liberalist mode of regeneration meets local challenges of sustaining place identity and social inclusion in the declining but lively neighborhoods of Ka-lak-a, and the bottom-up initiatives, facilitated by the collaboration of academic practicum, planners in residency, and local residents and activists, adopt different tactics of narrative operations to reinstate Ka-lak-a's identity grounded on its agricultural past and everyday-life stories of the community. From launching experimental filmic narratives to reiterating the narrative routes and reprogramming narrative spaces of the local, the action research of reconstructing narratives is regarded as the cornerstone of dialogical community planning to counterbalance the impending top-down implementation of urban renewal or regeneration projects. The premeditated methodology can also be applied as a dialogical tool for participatory planning and as spatial reconfiguration of social relations and community networks.},

	abstract = {This paper addresses the call for more action-based narratives of grassroot resistance to runaway climate change. At a time when deep changes in society are needed in order to respond to climate change and related sustainability issues, there are calls for greater connectivity between science and society, and for more inclusive and disruptive forms of knowledge creation and engagement. The contention of this paper is that the forces and structures that create a disconnect between science and society must be 'transgressed'. This paper introduces a concept of Transgressive Action Research as a methodological innovation that enables the co-creation of counter hegemonic pathways towards sustainability. Through the method of the Living Spiral Framework, fieldwork reflexions from the Colombian case study of the international T-Learning project were elicited, uncovering and explicating the transgressive learning qualities needed to respond to climate change. As part of a larger action-research project, this paper combines the arts with the social sciences, demonstrating how the concept of 'Transgressive Action Research' can enable co-researchers to engage in disruptive and transformative processes, meeting the need for more radical approaches to addressing the urgent challenges of climate change.},
