Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA)

Università della Svizzera Italiana Via Giuseppe Buffi 13, Lugano, Ticino, 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 Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA)

Tübingen Methods Center Fall School, Qualitative Comparative Analysis Workshop

University of Tübingen Geschwister-Scholl-Platz, Tübingen, Germany

Based on formal logic, set theory and Boolean algebra, Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) is a research method used to analyse combinations of conditions which are sufficient and/or necessary for the outcome under study. Developed by the political scientist and sociologist Charles Ragin, QCA focuses holistically on cases as combinations of factors rather than on the … Continue reading Tübingen Methods Center Fall School, Qualitative Comparative Analysis Workshop
