Автор: Blaikie, Priest Название: Designing Social Research: The Logic of Anticipation ISBN: 1509517413 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781509517411 Издательство: Wiley Рейтинг: Цена: 3166.00 р. Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.
Описание: Designing Social Research is a uniquely comprehensive, systematic and student-friendly guide to the core knowledge and types of skills required for planning social research.
The authors organize the book around the four major steps in social research - focusing, framing, selecting and distilling - placing particular emphasis on the formulation of research questions and the choice of appropriate 'logics of inquiry' to answer them. The basic requirements for research designs and proposals are laid out at the beginning of the book, followed by a discussion of key design issues such as the role of theoretical and other abstract ideas, varieties of method, sourcing and making sense of data, and research ethics. Four sample research designs on environmental issues illustrate the role of research questions and the application of the four logics of inquiry, and the third edition includes new material dedicated to social research in a digital, networked age.
Fully revised and updated, Designing Social Research will continue to be an invaluable resource to demystify the research process for advanced undergraduate and graduate students. Together with the authors' Social Research: Paradigms in Action and Blaikie's Approaches to Social Enquiry, it offers social scientists an innovative and up-to-date guide to research.

Описание: This book aims to identify promising future developmental opportunities and applications for Tech Mining. Specifically, the enclosed contributions will pursue three converging themes:The increasing availability of electronic text data resources relating to Science, Technology and Innovation (ST&I).The multiple methods that are able to treat this data effectively and incorporate means to tap into human expertise and interests.Translating those analyses to provide useful intelligence on likely future developments of particular emerging S&T targets. Tech Mining can be defined as text analyses of ST&I information resources to generate Competitive Technical Intelligence (CTI). It combines bibliometrics and advanced text analytic, drawing on specialized knowledge pertaining to ST&I. Tech Mining may also be viewed as a special form of “Big Data” analytics because it searches on a target emerging technology (or key organization) of interest in global databases. One then downloads, typically, thousands of field-structured text records (usually abstracts), and analyses those for useful CTI. Forecasting Innovation Pathways (FIP) is a methodology drawing on Tech Mining plus additional steps to elicit stakeholder and expert knowledge to link recent ST&I activity to likely future development. A decade ago, we demeaned Management of Technology (MOT) as somewhat self-satisfied and ignorant. Most technology managers relied overwhelmingly on casual human judgment, largely oblivious of the potential of empirical analyses to inform R&D management and science policy. CTI, Tech Mining, and FIP are changing that. The accumulation of Tech Mining research over the past decade offers a rich resource of means to get at emerging technology developments and organizational networks to date. Efforts to bridge from those recent histories of development to project likely FIP, however, prove considerably harder. One focus of this volume is to extend the repertoire of information resources; that will enrich FIP.Featuring cases of novel approaches and applications of Tech Mining and FIP, this volume will present frontier advances in ST&I text analytics that will be of interest to students, researchers, practitioners, scholars and policy makers in the fields of R&D planning, technology management, science policy and innovation strategy.
