Summary: | : Doctoral Education Studies, particularly in its North American manifestations, emphasizes
quantitative methods. The resulting research is empirical and occasionally empiricist. The challenges
revealed through this mode of research is that the highly ideological, volatile environment of higher
education is flattened, framed and justified. My research offers an alternative view and perspective of

supervision are framed by the post-Global Financial Crisis to understand the very specific – and volatile –
context for research and research training. |
