Hope and future 110 Conclusion 115 Bibliography 117 About Authors 127 This scientific monograph is one of two publications resulting from the project “Research for practice. The use of implementation master's theses based on ac- tion research for the development of organisations”, implemented between 2017 and 2019 by students and employees of the Faculty of Management and Social Communication of the Jagiellonian University in cooperation with public and non-governmental organisations. The monographs are a series of complemen- tary reflections on action research, seen from two different perspectives. Each of the books published as part of the collection Action Research in Academic Theory and Practice is directed to a different audience. The monograph, Action Research as an Approach in the Execution of the Thesis Advisory Process, describes how to change the diploma seminar, aimed at ensuring that the thesis advisory process allows both to develop students’ research competences and create con- ditions for open learning about organisational reality as is, and also leads to the development of emancipatory attitudes of students. The second monograph, Ac- tion Research. A Handbook for Students, was created for students undertaking action research and to write a thesis on this basis. It presents a description of the possibilities that the action research approach gives to researchers and, and also shows how a thesis can be created based on action research and what challenges are associated with it. These books differ not only in terms of intended readers. Their authors tried to show how various theoretical and methodological inspirations can accompa- ny action research. The attractiveness of action research lies, among other things, in the fact that it creates a peculiar frame for researching and transforming reali- ty that is not rigid, but plastic, and can be used in various methodological trends and organisational contexts. The project that results in this publication could have been implemented primarily thanks to the commitment and courage of students of the Institute of Public Affairs and the Institute of Culture who undertook to carry out action research and on its base to create implementation master’s theses.
