Description
Interpretive Quantification Methodological Explorations for Critical and Constructivist IR by J. Samuel Barkin and Laura Sjoberg challenges traditional divides between quantitative and qualitative approaches in International Relations research.
The authors argue that both methods can be more widely adaptable than commonly assumed, and present a compelling case for applying quantitative methods to specific constructivist and critical research questions.
Through ten chapters by highly regarded scholars in the field, this book demonstrates how to productively apply different methods across paradigms, highlighting the potential benefits of interdisciplinary approaches.
