Biography

Professor Louise Vincent is a qualitative research methodologist with a particular passion for narrative research. She works as a research capacity development consultant for a number of  universities – assisting PhD and MA candidates and academics with a range of research endeavours, including proposal writing, writing for publication, qualitative data generation methods, qualitative data analysis methods, NVivo, literature reviewing and the use of theory in qualitative data interpretation. 

Research

Her research is principally in the field of the politics of the body – an interest in ways in which social and political power relations can be understood to be written on, and incorporated into, the bodies of citizens. This interest has expressed itself in a variety of projects in which she attempts to read South Africa’s democratic transition through a corporeal lens.
