The researcher-as-dramaturg: lingering in-between theory and practicer or how artistic strategies enrich academic research. A manifesto to switch gear.

Abstract

What does the notion of the dramaturg add to the position of the researcher? In this manifest I explore the position of the researcher-as-dramaturg as an opening up of methodology with strategies from different fields. I propose the researcher-as-dramaturga s a necessary re-evaluation of the process within the realm of academic research.
