Bu çalışma, fenomenoloji, içerik analizi, eylem araştırması, eleştirel araştırma ve eleştirel söylem analizi de dahil olmak üzere sosyal bilimler alanında kullanılan bir dizi nitel araştırma yaklaşımını incelemektedir. Bu tartışma, araştırma metodolojileri alanında realist ve idealist temeller arasındaki ikili karşıtlığı sorgulamaya hizmet eden Foucaultcu bir merceğin benimsenmesinin öneminin altını çizmektedir. Metin, açık sözlülüğü, gerçeği söylemesi ve riski kabul etmesiyle ayırt edilen “korkusuz konuşma” ya da parrhesia kavramına bir giriş sunmaktadır. Ayrıca, özellikle otorite konumundaki kişilerle karşı karşıya gelindiğinde, hakikati söylemenin doğasında var olan tehlikenin altını çizmektedir. Bu çalışma, kent sosyolojisi ile savaş ve barış çalışmalarının karşılaştığı etik ve metodolojik açmazlara ışık tutmayı amaçlamaktadır. Makale, bu ilkeler ile kentsel dokunun tahrip edilmesi olgusu üzerine yapılan araştırmalar arasında bir bağlantı kurarak sona ermektedir. Bu şekilde, sadece teorik temeli sorgulamakla kalmayıp, aynı zamanda kentsel dokunun tahribatının karmaşık bağlamında nitel araştırmanın etik yönlerini etkilemeye yönelik bir girişimdir.

Parrhesia in Qualitative Research: Unveiling Truths, the Critique of Power, and Embracing Risk

Öz

This work examines a range of qualitative research approaches used in the field of social sciences, including phenomenology, content analysis, action research, critical research, and critical discourse analysis. This argument underscores the significance of adopting a Foucauldian lens, which serves to question the binary opposition between realist and idealist underpinnings in the realm of research methodologies. The text provides an introduction to the notion of “fearless speech” or parrhesia, which is distinguished by its frankness, truth-telling, and acknowledgment of risk. Furthermore, it underscores the inherent danger associated with truth-telling, particularly when confronting those in positions of authority. This study seeks to provide insights into the ethical and methodological dilemmas faced by urban sociology and war and peace studies. The article finishes by establishing a connection between the qualitative research principles and research conducted on the phenomenon of urban fabric destruction. In that way, it is an attempt not only to question the theoretical basis but also to influence the ethical aspects of qualitative research in the intricate context of urban fabric destruction.
