Designing social science research
Bukve, Oddbjorn.

Designing social science research[electronic resource] /by Oddbjorn Bukve. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2019. - xv, 219 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

1. Introduction -- 2. Scientific Knowledge and Practice -- 3. Social Science as Reconstruction of Social Phenomena -- 4. The Logic and Methodological Rules of Reconstruction -- 5. Design of Research Projects -- 6. Variable-Centred Designs -- 7. Case Designs -- 8. Integrated Designs -- 9. Comparative Designs -- 10. Intervention-Oriented Designs -- 11. The Design Process.

This book presents different research designs, their respective purposes and merits as well as their underlying assumptions. Research designs are characterised by a certain combination of knowledge aims and strategies for data production. An adequate design is the key to carrying out a successful research project. Nevertheless, the literature on design is scarce, compared to the literature on methods. This book clarifies the basic distinction between variable-oriented designs and case designs, and proceeds to integrated, comparative and intervention-oriented designs. A step-by-step guide to the design process and the choices to make is also included. The book's clear style makes it an excellent guide for master students and PhD students doing their first research exercises, while it is also useful for more experienced researchers who want to broaden their design repertoire and keep up to recent innovations in the field of research design. Oddbjorn Bukve is Professor of Organisation and Management at Western Norway University of Applied Sciences, Campus Sogndal, Norway. His research covers regional and local governance, economic development and innovation, and health service organisations, using a wide range of research designs.
