Non-traditional evidenceI’m using this term to mean those sources of information that have generally not been considered “appropriate” by most academics. This is becoming a matter of great concern, especially in the social sciences and such multidisciplinary fields as Women’s Studies, First Nations Studies, or Northern Studies. In these fields, personal histories, oral testimony, biographies, even the researcher’s own thoughts and experiences of the research are now being used more and more, leading to debate about the “quality,” “bias” or “appropriateness” of such sources.
