28th Summer School in Social Science Methods: Qualitative Comparative Analysis: Research Design and Application

Università della Svizzera italiana (USI), Lugano West Campus Via Giuseppe Buffi 13, Lugano, Switzerland

This workshop provides participants with a thorough introduction to Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA). Since its inception (Ragin 1987), QCA has gained recognition among social scientists as a case-based research method that is ideally suited to capture causal complexity. This essentially describes a situation where an outcome results from multiple pathways and different combinations of conditions. … Continue reading 28th Summer School in Social Science Methods: Qualitative Comparative Analysis: Research Design and Application
