“…The proposed debate would be meaningless if not coherently aligned with relevant contemporary themes (Bispo, 2022). We believe that using advanced presentday computational tools in qualitative research represents an opportunity for social science scholars from developing countries.…”

“…We advocate that research (and researchers) might benefit from an integrated approach that uses computational tools to overcome traditional limitations. In this sense, we aim to contribute to the contemporary debate on research methods by anticipating disruptions, detaching from the present, and trying to understand the contemporary as the result of a historical process (Bispo, 2022).…”

Objective: the paper introduces a framework for conducting interpretive research using deep learning algorithms that blur the boundaries between qualitative and quantitative approaches. The work evidences how research might benefit from an integrated approach that uses computational tools to overcome traditional limitations. Proposal: the increased availability and diversity of data raises the utility of algorithms as research tools for social scientists. Furthermore, tuning and using such computational artifacts may benefit from interpretive procedures. Such circumstances turn the traditional debate between quantitative and qualitative research on its head: the research strategy that likely yields the most assertiveness and rigor is the one that may require vigorous hermeneutic effort. Along these lines, neural word embeddings can be instrumental in allowing researchers to read the data closely before and after interpretation. Conclusions: to take advantage of the opportunity generated by these new algorithms, researchers may broaden their previous conceptions and adopt a participative point of view. In the coming decades, the interweaving of computational and interpretive methods has the potential to integrate rigorous social science research.

“…Also, the journal understands that theory and practice are interdependent (Bispo, 2022a) and offers space for articles portraying applied research and focusing on solutions to concrete problems (Motta, 2022). Thus, as Bispo (2022b) proposes, taking inspiration from Agamben (2009), 'contemporary' in RAC's point of view refers to the ability to apprehend and learn, approximating and distancing from the present time and its challenges.…”

Epistemological Reflections and Doing Science in Contemporary Administration

RAC has prioritized studies that advance the scientific debate in the field of contemporary administration, favoring original and interdisciplinary studies with epistemological approaches expanding conceptual boundaries and innovatively connecting theory and practice. RAC values responsible knowledge production that contributes in and out of academia. Given this, it is vital to reinforce a research agenda for administration, broadening the horizons of epistemological and metatheoretical discussions on the content of the knowledge produced and on how this knowledge is produced. Such a research agenda must focus on the field’s scientific practices, the scope and limits, and the consequences of these practices in academia and beyond. This editorial presents some reflections and contributions to thinking about new epistemological paths and supporting the use of new praxeological avenues in the field. The intention is to help consolidate a research agenda on epistemology and practices in the scientific work of administration oriented toward the most prominent societal challenges.

“…Como explicitado em sua política editorial e também discutido em outros editoriais da revista, a RAC tem apostado em artigos que tragam claras contribuições para o campo, sejam teóricas, sejam práticas, metodológicas ou didáticas (Bispo, 2023), entendendo que teoria e prática são interdependentes (Bispo, 2022a) e dando espaço para artigos fruto de pesquisa aplicada e voltados para soluções de problemas concretos (Motta, 2022). Diante disso, como propõe Bispo (2022b), inspirando-se em Agamben (2009), o contemporâneo na RAC está relacionado à capacidade de apreender e aprender com o tempo presente e seus desafios, realizando aproximações e também distanciamentos em relação a ele.…”

RESUMO A RAC tem priorizado trabalhos que avancem o debate científico no campo da administração contemporânea, privilegiando estudos originais, interdisciplinares e com abordagens epistemológicas que expandam fronteiras conceituais e articulem teoria e prática, de forma inovadora, valorizando uma produção de conhecimento responsável e que traga contribuições para dentro e para fora da academia. Diante disso, coloca-se a importância de reforçar uma agenda de pesquisa em administração que amplie os horizontes das discussões epistemológicas e metateóricas sobre o conteúdo do conhecimento produzido, mas também sobre como esse conhecimento é produzido, concentrando-se nas práticas científicas do campo, seus alcances e limites e as consequências dessas práticas no universo acadêmico e para além dele. Esse editorial apresenta algumas reflexões e contribuições para pensar novas vias epistemológicas e para experimentar novas avenidas praxeológicas no campo, buscando contribuir para adensar uma agenda de pesquisa sobre epistemologia e as práticas no fazer científico da administração orientado para os grandes desafios societais.
