Social scientists seek to develop systematic ways to understand how
people make meaning and how the meanings they make shape them and
the world in which they live. But how do we measure such processes?
Measuring Culture is an essential point of entry for both those new
to the field and those who are deeply immersed in the measurement
of meaning. Written collectively by a team of leading qualitative
and quantitative sociologists of culture, the book considers three
common subjects of measurement-people, objects, and
relationships-and then discusses how to pivot effectively between
subjects and methods. Measuring Culture takes the reader on a tour
of the state of the art in measuring meaning, from discussions of
neuroscience to computational social science. It provides both the
definitive introduction to the sociological literature on culture
as well as a critical set of case studies for methods courses
across the social sciences.
