Role of researcher according to post-structuralists is :

  • A.Authoritative
  • B.Ideal
  • C.Equal and Participatory
  • D.Equal and Prescriptive

Answer: C

The role is equal and participatory.

Post-structuralists such as Foucault and Derrida question the authority of any single, privileged voice, including that of the researcher. Research is seen as a shared construction of meaning, so the researcher is expected to work alongside participants as an equal rather than as an expert who interprets them from above.

An authoritative or prescriptive role is precisely what this approach rejects, and 'ideal' does not describe a research relationship.
