Inhoud:
In a previous issue of Educational Action Research, Jean-Claude Couture revisited his involvement in a university action research project with particular reference to his complicity in - and, eventually, resistance to - working for the interests of the university. In his essay, entitled 'Dracula as action researcher'. Couture uses the 1992 movie, Bram Stoker's Dracula, as a source of metaphors and analogies for rewriting the story of his involvement in the project. In this response to Couture. I suggest that the movie offers fewer textual resources for the deconstruction he attempts than does Bram Stoker's original novel and, more importantly, that Couture may have thus overlooked important resources for resisting his positioning as an accomplice of the university. I also suggest that juxtaposing Couture's story of action research with Bram Stoker's version of the Dracula legend highlights crucial questions about the mobilisation of textual authority in educational action research.
