Peace methodologies expect researchers to align what we are studying with how we are studying it, ensuring our values are present in our processes. Each stage of research is “part of a peacebuilding process” (Bretherton and Law, 2015:5). In a ‘post-truth’ era, when traditional methodologies seem unable to connect with an increasingly divided people, paying attention to our processes is even more critical. We need to find compelling ways to inquire into educational issues, using processes that engage those we may not agree with at every stage. This paper introduces a new peace methodology – relational critical discourse analysis – and details how it has been used by the authors to inquire into negative online comments regarding restorative justice.
