Description

This Routledge guide explores how social scientists work with concepts at the foundation of their discipline. Rather than pursuing positivist concept reconstruction through technical vocabulary for measurement and generalisation, the book presents an interpretivist approach called elucidation. This method combines reflexive examination of social science technical language with investigation into everyday language use, offering readers a clear understanding of both linguistic registers, their relationship to one another, and their practical application in social science research and theory building.

Key Features

Interpretivist approach to concept elucidation provides an alternative to positivist reconstruction methods in social science research.

The guide examines both technical vocabulary used in social science and the language of daily life to clarify conceptual foundations.

Part of the Routledge Series on Interpretive Methods, situating this work within a broader scholarly framework for qualitative research.

Reflexive methodology helps researchers understand how language shapes social science inquiry and theoretical development.

Offers practical guidance for working with concepts in social science disciplines beyond traditional measurement-based approaches.
