Abstract

Knowledge is developed not through an isolated process but by way of co-construction which involves interactions and interpretation of meanings. However, the mechanism through which knowledge is co-constructed during the research process that requires interaction with participants and interpretation of their views is largely under-researched. This chapter bridges this gap by demonstrating the process of co-construction of knowledge in the study of trade union movements in the Nepalese tourism industry by using a grounded theory approach. The primary data for this study was collected through 51 unstructured interviews in Kathmandu, Nepal, for 11 months between 2015 and 2016. Situated in the field of industrial relations, an underrepresented and under-researched area of the tourism industry, this paper examines the co-constructing of knowledge on the trade union movements in the Nepalese tourism industry at four distinct stages.
