Conceptual Foundations of Social Research Methods
ISBN: 9781594510700 / Angielski / Twarda / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book probes the complex methodological choices facing social researchers and students who are applying or learning the methods of social research. The author shows how an understanding of social research requires close consideration of the underlying conceptual frameworks - from neopositivism to structuralism, hermeneutics and anti-foundationalism - that shape how one studies society. Baranov introduces each philosophical tradition and shows how decisions about research design and methodology are affected by them. He also explains the practical and ethical consequences that follow from...

Postmodernism and the Social Sciences
ISBN: 9780333534526 / Angielski / Twarda / 253 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The social sciences are still predominantly modernist disciplines and, as such, products of the Enlightenment.

Postmodernism and the Social Sciences examines the nature and potential of this postmodernist challenge in each of the major social sciences. Starting with the practices of particular disciplines and proceeding to matters of shared concern, the essays provide an accessible discussion of the contemporary impact of postmodernism on social scientific...

Evaluating for Good Practice
ISBN: 9780333599679 / Angielski / Miękka / 223 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. With the changing political economy of social welfare, evaluation has become prevalent in the personal social services and voluntary sector organisations. This text argues that rational-technical and pluralist models of evaluation may collude with new managerialism to act as powerful processes of control. Alternative critical models of evaluation, which take account of power, are explored, so as to enable practitioners to take responsibility for evaluating practice, both in order to inhibit poor, or even corrupt, practice, and to promote good practice.

A Conceptual Introduction To Modeling : Qualitative and Quantitative Perspectives
ISBN: 9780805819373 / Angielski / Twarda / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When seeking to test specific hypotheses in large data sets, social and behavioural scientists often construct models. Although useful in such situations, many phenomena of interest do not occur in large samples and do not lend themselves to precise measurement. In addition, a focus on hypothesis testing can constrict the potential use of models as organizing devices for emerging patterns - summaries of what we believe we know about the dynamics of situation.

This is an introductory account of social theory and the central role of enlightenment within it. Tom Osborne argues that: contemporary social theory can only fail when viewed as a science of society, and rather than focusing upon the question of society or even modernity should focus on the question of human nature. The most immediate and central topic of such a social theory should be the question of enlightenment.
