In the Third Space : A case study of Canadian students in a social work practicum in India - 3 views

  •  
    This article relates the story of Canadian students who went to India for a field placement and do social work. Grounding on Bhabha's theory of "Third Space", the authors describe the different boundaries (cultural, linguistic, cognitive and emotional) that the student had to face and could or not crossed while being in India basing their research on the different feedback given by them. The Student had to continually negotiate cultural difference which leads to inner and outer tension. This article reflects perfectly what every individual lives when going and living in another country. I think that it relates perfectly to everyone of us in this Master.

But how to manage in an efficient manner for everyone a community-academic partnership? Researchers and members involved have faced many boundaries during the implementation and the existence of this partnership.
