This book explores the core principles, related theories, and conventions of qualitative research methods within the field of argumentation studies.
In each chapter, contributors identify, contextualize, and offer solutions to various issues that a qualitative researcher in argumentation is likely to encounter. In doing so, the book provides a set of guidelines, instruments, and recommendations that enable readers to effectively conduct research and analyze arguments. Furthermore, the book presents discussions of the ethics, validity, and reliability of qualitative research methods as well as the intersections between qualitative and quantitative approaches. Looking to the future, chapters explore what the field could learn from other disciplines and how research could better integrate alternative data sources.
Providing a detailed outline of qualitative data analysis and interpretation, this book will be of interest to scholars and students in the fields of argumentation studies, communication studies, rhetoric, and linguistics.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"This collective volume is a highly recommendable contribution to the qualitative study of argumentation. It thoroughly explores theoretical and methodological problems of qualitative argumentation research. To these problems, this innovative book delivers promising answers. Of course, the respective strengths of qualitative and quantitative methods can also be combined, as some contributions to the volume plausibly show."
Manfred Kienpointner, University of Innsbruck, Austria
"Wisely distancing themselves from a dichotomous qualitative/quantitative divide, the authors explore how these two methods can be combined in argumentation research on concrete issues, from reconstructing arguments to ethical issues, from norms, to persuasion, to visual argument and guidelines for data collection."
Christian Plantin, Research Director at Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, France
