Abstract
This paper seeks to demonstrate some of the basic principles of Participatory Action Research (PAR), primarily through a very concrete example of music video production. After a brief historical sketch of PAR, “University-Community Links” projects in California will be discussed as ways of extending PAR into community based research (see http://uclinks.berkeley.edu). Finally, an example from related project work here in Augsburg, Germany, will be discussed, where students from the University of Augsburg worked together with local youth in producing a music video.
