Description
Book SynopsisTen highly regarded scholars in the field of International Relations apply quantitative methods and formal models to specific constructivist and critical research questions. In this way, each chapter serves not only as evidence that methods can productively be applied across paradigms, but also as a guide as to how this may be done.
Trade ReviewInterpretive Quantification offers a timely, much-needed transgression of a major theoretical-methodological boundary limiting the possibilities of IR: with high-quality contributions organized in a systematic way, it demonstrates how quantitative methods can and should enrich constructivist and critical approaches, thereby opening up fascinating new research avenues."" - Stephane Baele, University of Exeter
""...deserves a place on the short list of books and articles that change, not what we know about the world, but how we think about it. Very highly recommended for graduate students and faculty alike."" - Bear Braumoeller, The Ohio State University
""This truly path-breaking volume opens up productive lines of scholarship that have been sorely neglected."" - Andrew Bennett, Georgetown University
