Doctoral Study and Getting Published
Narratives of Early Career Researchers
Edited by Achilleas Kostoulas
-
Pressure to share research findings in the form of academic publications has meant that, early on in their process, doctoral candidates are encouraged, required even, to develop skills that will help them engage with the competitive publication market. This rich collection of early career research narratives focuses on researcher development and education, with an emphasis on the often pressurised, and stressful process of publishing during, as, from, and after a doctorate through the use of an ecological perspective. It brings together a diverse but coherent set of voices, reflections and advice from early-career researchers regarding publication experiences. Issues explored include academic identity, collaboration (including include student-supervisor relationships, co-authorship and working in research groups), dynamics of larger scholarly communities and engaging with publishers and reviewer feedback. Focuses less on the mechanics of writing and more on the process of identity development, this is intended as a supplementary resource for use by doctoral students and early career researchers in the Humanities and Social Sciences, whether they are enrolled in academic writing programmes or working individually to develop their authorial identity.
