“…The experience of the fall of previous meta-narratives, fragmentation of knowledge, pluralization of truths, as well as functioning in hyper-reality in which "illusion and simulation are valued more than the underlying objects" (Valliere & Gegenhuber, 2014, p. 7) have been posing a challenge for contemporary academia and the research methods that it recommends (see : Bush & Silk, 2010;Papson, 2014). The limitations perceived by researchers due to the dominance of "orthodox positivist approaches" (Turnbull, 2002, p. 11;Nyika & Murray-Orr, 2017), along with the conviction that the development of research methods is too slow in relation to the rapid changes of the objects studied using these methods has triggered the need to search for "multitheoretical, multimethodological and multidisciplinary informed approaches to methodological decisions making" (McMillan, 2015, p. 1). Thus, the bricolage that stems from the assumptions of postmodernism is understood as "a functional response to both the increasing velocities of information and the breakdown of cultural hierarchies" (Papson, 2014, p. 377).…”
