非常優秀的一部方法論作品,對於量化研究的度量設計、質性研究的案例選擇(尤其是negative case selection)有很大幫助。另:感覺Possiblilty Principle其實已經隱含瞭“半負麵案例”的意味。
評分1、概念界定的兩種方式:essentialism and family resemblance 2、概念的三個層次:basic second indicator level 3、基礎層次 和 第二層次 的關係:causal ontological substitutability 4、概念和測量的一緻性:sufficient necessary 5、選擇負麵案例和確定總體的原則: Possibility Principle 6、Two level theory and QCA

Gary Goertz is Professor of Political Science at the University of Arizona. He is the author of Contexts of International Politics and International Norms and Decision Making: A Punctuated Equilibrium Model, and the coauthor of War and Peace in International Rivalry.
Concepts lie at the core of social science theory and methodology. They provide substance to theories; they form the basis of measurement; they influence the selection of cases. "Social Science Concepts: A Users Guide" explores alternative means of concept construction and their impact on the role of concepts in measurement, case selection, and theories. While there exists a plethora of books on measurement, scaling, and the like, there are virtually no books devoted to the construction and analysis of concepts and their role in the research enterprise. "Social Science Concepts: A Users Guide" provides detailed and practical advice on the construction and use of social science concepts; a Web site provides classroom exercises. It uses a wide range of examples from political science and sociology such as revolution, welfare state, international disputes and war, and democracy to illustrate the theoretical and practical issues of concept construction and use. It explores the means of constructing complex, multilevel, and multidimensional concepts. In particular, it examines the classic necessary and sufficient condition approach to concept building and contrasts it with the family resemblance approach. The consequences of valid concept construction are explored in both qualitative and quantitative analyses. "Social Science Concepts: A Users Guide" will prove an indispensable guide for graduate students and scholars in the social sciences. More broadly, it will appeal to scholars in any field who wish to think more carefully about the concepts used to create theories and research designs. For Course Use: "Social Science Concepts: A Users Guide" has been written with classroom use in mind. Many of the chapters have been successfully taught at the Annual Training Institute on Qualitative Research Methods which is sponsored by the Consortium on Qualitative Research Methods. Feedback from those experiences has been incorporated into the text. Each chapter provides useful, practical, and detailed advice on how to construct, evaluate, and use concepts. To make the volume more useful, an extensive set of classroom exercises is available. These include questions about prominent published work on concepts, measures, and case selection; in addition there are logic exercises and questions regarding large-N applications.
