Charles Ragin is professor of sociology and political science at the University of Arizona. He is the author ofFuzzy-Set Social Science and The Comparative Method: Moving Beyond Qualitative and Quantitative Strategies.
For over twenty years Charles C. Ragin has been at the forefront of the development of innovative methods for social scientists. In "Redesigning Social Inquiry", he continues his campaign to revitalize the field, challenging major aspects of the conventional template for social science research while offering a clear alternative."Redesigning Social Inquiry" provides a substantive critique of the standard approach to social research - namely, assessing the relative importance of causal variables drawn from competing theories. Instead, Ragin proposes the use of set-theoretic methods to find a middle path between quantitative and qualitative research. Through a series of contrasts between fuzzy-set analysis and conventional quantitative research, Ragin demonstrates the capacity for set-theoretic methods to strengthen connections between qualitative researchers' deep knowledge of their cases and quantitative researchers' elaboration of cross-case patterns. Packed with useful examples, "Redesigning Social Inquiry" will be indispensable to experienced professionals and to budding scholars about to embark on their first project.

作者的思路還是挺神奇的,他自己說是不同於quan和quali的另外一種研究方法。可能是因為比較奇特,我在書上到處加瞭批注,有很多疑問。比方說,作者說的fsQCA的方法是科學方法麼?可以證僞麼?假設證僞過程分為兩個部分,結論和測量,即使結論是可證僞的,測量是可以的麼?起碼在我看來,賦值這種方法是不可證僞的。盡管某個學者可能可以說明前輩的賦值不閤理,但是不閤理貌似並不等於錯誤。FUSSY, FUSSY
