Programma insegnamento
The aim of this course is to discuss main approaches to political science and sociology and related methodological choices. We will go through the principal steps in designing research, formulating research questions and hypotheses and selecting methods for data collection. In this sense, it aims at introducing all main steps that first year students need to take to design their research project.
Taking into account the diverse national and disciplinary background of first year research, the seminar attempts to develop some common knowledge, without losing the richness of plurality. The seminar as a whole, as well as the individual sessions, aim at critically contrasting the advantages as well as problems of the various strategies in the construction of scientific knowledge.
