Troubling cartographies and ambivalent imaginaries   using heuristic models heuristically: The EIHE project has enabled a research collective to form around individual and collective  imaginaries  of higher education, exploring associated ideas about global citizenship, interdependence, global change and social accountability. This paper reflects on the use of social cartographies and  imaginaries  as heuristics for analysing qualitative and quantitative data in the project. Social cartography (Paulston, 1999;2000) and the application of the idea of social  imaginaries  (Castoriadis 1987) to higher education informed the development of a heuristic to enable three major discursive orientations  - neoliberal, liberal and critical as well as their interfaces- to be mapped and visualized as a tool for analysis. Perspectives emerging from the data could be clarified and compared using the heuristic, which is flexible enough to allow the identification of ambivalent, partial and overlapping positions.
