Per sociologia "più queer". Innovazioni e implicazioni per la ricerca sociale

This paper re-evaluates some conventional research practices in Sociology, advocating for their reformulation through a queer lens to bet-ter capture the complexity and diversity of human experiences. The primary aim is to advance strategies for a more inclusive and reflexive approach to fieldwork, balancing theoretical innovation with methodological rigor. It explores how key stages of the research process - formulating research questions, developing data collection tools, sampling and recruitment, data collection and analysis, and disseminating findings - can be restructured to challenge normative as-sumptions and binary frameworks. Emphasis is placed on fostering participatory approaches and embracing fluidity in identity representation, ensuring that marginalized voices and experiences are adequately acknowledged and represented. By proposing methodological adjustments rooted in queer perspectives, the article seeks to expand the scope of sociological inquiry, promoting a practice of knowledge co-creation that actively engages with the plurality of social realities.
