== In the social sciences ==
Authors use the concept of ''recursivity'' to foreground the situation in which specifically ''social'' scientists find themselves when producing knowledge about the world they are always already part of.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Bourdieu |first=Pierre |year=1992 |title=Double Bind et Conversion |journal=Pour Une Anthropologie Réflexive |publisher=Le Seuil |publication-place=Paris}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |last=Giddens |first=Anthony |title=Social Theory and Modern Sociology |publisher=Polity Press |year=1987}}</ref> According to Audrey Alejandro, “as social scientists, the recursivity of our condition deals with the fact that we are both subjects (as discourses are the medium through which we analyse) and objects of the academic discourses we produce (as we are social agents belonging to the world we analyse).”<ref name="Alejandro2021">{{Cite journal |last=Alejandro |first=Audrey |date=2021 |title=Reflexive discourse analysis: A methodology for the practice of reflexivity |url=http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1354066120969789 |journal=European Journal of International Relations |language=en |volume=27 |issue=1 |page=171 |doi=10.1177/1354066120969789 |s2cid=229461433 |issn=1354-0661|doi-access=free }}</ref> From this basis, she identifies in recursivity a fundamental challenge in the production of emancipatory knowledge which calls for the exercise of [[Reflexivity (social theory)|reflexive]] efforts:{{quote|we are socialised into discourses and dispositions produced by the socio-political order we aim to challenge, a socio-political order that we may, therefore, reproduce unconsciously while aiming to do the contrary. The recursivity of our situation as scholars – and, more precisely, the fact that the dispositional tools we use to produce knowledge about the world are themselves produced by this world – both evinces the vital necessity of implementing reflexivity in practice and poses the main challenge in doing so.|Audrey Alejandro| {{Harvp|Alejandro|2021}}}}
