Innovative Comparative Methods for Policy Analysis aims to
provide a decisive push to the further development and application
of innovative and specific comparative methods for the improvement
of policy analysis. To take on this challenge, this volume brings
together methodologists and specialists from a broad range of
social scientific disciplines and policy fields.
The work further develops methods for systematic comparative
cases analysis in a small-N research design, with a key emphasis
laid on policy-oriented applications. Innovative Comparative
Methods for Policy Analysis is clearly both a social scientific and
policy-driven endeavor; on the one hand, the book engages in an
effort to further improve social scientific methods, but on the
other hand this effort also intends to provide useful, applied
tools for policy analysts and the "policy community" alike. Though
quite a variety of methods and techniques are touched upon in this
volume, its focus is mainly laid on two recently developed research
methods/techniques which enable researchers to systematically
compare a limited number of cases; Qualitative Comparative
Analysis(QCA) and Fuzzy-Sets (FS).
