Description

Concepts serve as the foundation for all social science research. In this book, Schaffer provides a specialized guide for working with these fundamental elements through an interpretivist lens. Rather than following the positivist method of concept reconstruction, which seeks to create technical and neutral vocabularies for measurement and generalization, this work introduces the method of elucidation. Elucidation offers a different way to approach social science technical language. By combining a reflexive examination of academic terminology with an investigation into the language used in daily life, the text helps researchers gain a clearer view of how language functions. This approach helps clarify the relationship between technical social science terms and the way people communicate in everyday settings. Part of the Routledge Series on Interpretive Methods, this book is a valuable resource for those studying anthropology, sociology, and the broader social sciences. It provides the tools necessary to move beyond simple measurement and toward a deeper understanding of the linguistic frameworks that shape our social world.
