Recenzii
Doing
Researchis
a
gem.
It
provides
multiple
research
methods
and
models
focusing
on
conflict
analysis
and
resolution
that
can
be
used
by
any
student
in
a
variety
of
social
science
disciplines
or
fields
of
study.
I
wish
this
book
had
been
written
20
years
ago.
Doing Researchis the most widely acclaimed book on research methods for conflict resolution students to appear in recent years. The book makes a unique contribution to the conflict resolution field by providing a comprehensive overview of the cutting edge methodological approaches in the field. The book provides a wonderfully rich array of ideas about ways to do research for both the scholar and practitioner--pracademic--enriching the analysis and practice in the conflict resolution field. The author of a diverse intellectual background and experiences bases his contribution to the course on conflict analysis and resolution theory, and empirical evidence experience. He makes a highly valuable contribution to applying multi-methods to concrete examples from the conflict resolution field.
"Provides a valuable tool to those dealing with conflict analysis in a variety of disciplines and professions. The first of its kind, this book is expecially suited to conflict studies because Druckman demonstrates the value of multi-methods approches as a research program in a context 'moving vertically form small to large studies and moving horizontally from simulations to case studes'...Doing Researchhighlights just such complementarity and provides a 'foundation for the way methodologies can be used for social science research'."

methods
text
devoted

of
the
philosophical
foundations
for
doing
research,
providing
guidelines
on
how
to
