Abstract

This article explores the connections between ontology, epistemology and methodology in the literature review of a PhD in the social sciences. It asks whether and how early-career researchers develop literature review methodologies that are appropriate for the type of research project they intend. By juxtaposing systematic reviews with a more inductive method that integrates ‘feminist archival sensibility’ this article explores the implications of methodological choice for the wider philosophical framing of a thesis or dissertation. Although this article is intended for postgraduate students and early career researchers, supervisors may also be interested in the issues raised and the potential implications for doctoral pedagogy.
