Realist Biography and European Policy : An Innovative Approach to European Policy Studies PDF
Edited by Turk Jeffrey David Turk, Mrozowicki Adam Mrozowicki
Description
The method of biographical story-telling applied to newly emerging fields of research
Realist Biography and European Policy is the first concerted attempt to integrate the separate strands of (critical) realism as a developed philosophy for social science with biographical narrative methods as a concrete methodological approach. The main goal is to demonstrate that the combination of critical realism and biographical methods is not only possible, but it is exceptionally well suited for the exploration of newly emerging research fields within European policy studies.
This volume offers new insights to and is an indispensable reference for researchers in search of solid underpinnings for their own empirical research.
This publication is GPRC-labeled (Guaranteed Peer-Reviewed Content).
