Andrew Eccles, Lecturer in Social Work and Social Policy at The University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, here discusses the deployment of ‘remote care’ technologies (such as monitoring by telecare and telehealth) as a way of addressing the future sustainability of support and care for older people.
The talk starts with a brief, classical, account of ‘positivist’ and ‘interpretivist’ epistemological positions and the ways in which their methodological tools of ‘discovering knowledge’ sit in tension, but argue that both are important in pursuing a more complete understanding of policy complexity. It then explore the challenges of different methodological approaches in relation to remote-care technologies; their limitations but also the persistent lack of understanding across traditional disciplinary boundaries, with reflection also at this stage on the question of ‘validity’ and the ways in which this may be (mis)understood by different research disciplines. The talk then move on to consider what a more interpretivist approach to understanding technologies in their social context might involve, and the processes whereby traditional disciplinary barriers might be overcome.
