DESCRIPCIÓN : Este curso representa una primera aproximacion al analisis cualitativo. Dicha corriente reflexiona sobre las ventajas y desventajas de los metodos mas comunmente utilizados en la ciencia politica cualitativa actual y propone estrategias de investigacion que combinan metodos de diferente extraccion epistemologica, en particular interpretativista y neopositivista. Prestaremos especial atencion a la formacion de conceptos y la seleccion de casos, las discusiones sobre causalidad y los dise?os de estudio de caso o de estrategias comparativas cualitativas de pocos casos. Finalmente, las tecnicas de process tracing, contrafacticos y fuzzy sets, seran tambien de nuestro interes.


I. OBJETIVOS

1. Conocer las especificaciones epistemologicas de los metodos cualitativos.
2. Discutir la causalidad deterministica, la causalidad asimetrica y la equifinalidad.
