Process tracing : from metaphor to analytic tool
Andrew Bennett (編集者), Jeffrey T. Checkel (編集者)
"Advances in qualitative methods and recent developments in the philosophy of science have led to an emphasis on explanation via reference to causal mechanisms. This book argues that the method known as process tracing is particularly well suited to developing and assessing theories about such mechanisms. The editors begin by establishing a philosophical basis for process tracing - one that captures mainstream uses while simultaneously being open to applications by interpretive scholars"-- Provided by publisher
