Announcing QUALMETH - a new discussion list

The Consortium on Qualitative Research Methods is pleased to announce
the
creation of QUALMETH, an electronic discussion list for political
scientists
and other scholars to analyze, debate, develop, critique and apply
qualitative methods, broadly defined.

To subscribe to QUALMETH send an email to listserv at asu.edu with the
subject
line left blank, and with the message text:

       subscribe QUALMETH yourfirstname yourlastname

For more information see:

http://www.asu.edu/clas/polisci/cqrm/qualmeth.html

QUALMETH will post messages on a broad range of topics, including
queries on
particular methods, discussions of texts advocating or critiquing
qualitative methods, analysis of work applying qualitative methods, and
up-to-date information on opportunities for, or problems with, archival
access. QUALMETH will also publish book reviews, paper abstracts,
relevant
job descriptions, and notices of the posting of syllabi and working
papers
on the CQRM electronic database.

In addition to these regular activities, QUALMETH will host scheduled
roundtables in the CQRM discussion series. The series posts recent or
draft
articles and book chapters in which scholars analyze, debate, develop,
critique and apply a variety of qualitative methods, or discuss issues
relevant to their application. The first 3 roundtables will be on:

1) March 28, 2001

*** James Mahoney, "Nominal, Ordinal and Narrative Appraisal in
Macrocausal
Analysis" AJS 104(4): 1154-96.

*** James Mahoney, "Strategies of Causal Inference in Small-N Analysis"
Sociological Methods & Research, 28(4): 387-424.

2) April 30, 2001

*** Richard Ned Lebow, "Franz Ferdinand Found Alive: World War I
Unnecessary," forthcoming in Unmaking the West: Counterfactual Thought
Experiments in History, edited by Philip Tetlock, Richard Ned Lebow and
Geoffrey Parker.

*** Paul W. Schroeder, "Embedded Counterfactuals and World War I as an
Unavoidable War," forthcoming in Unmaking the West: Counterfactual
Thought
Experiments in History, edited by Philip Tetlock, Richard Ned Lebow and
Geoffrey Parker.

3) Date to be announced

*** Paul Pierson, "Not Just What, but When: Timing and Sequence in
Political
Processes," Studies in American Political Development 14 (Spring 2000)
72-92.

These articles and book chapters will be made available on the CQRM
website
before the dates mentioned, when the roundtables will open with the
posting
of several commentaries. The discussions will then continue via email
until
the related threads are completed.

http://www.asu.edu/clas/polisci/cqrm/discussion.series.html

QUALMETH recognizes that scholars face increasing 'email overload,' and
undertakes to limit list traffic to a reasonable level of activity.  In
the
same spirit, QUALMETH apologizes if you received multiple copies of this
notice, which is being transmitted along several routes.

Any questions on QUALMETH or CQRM's other activities can be emailed to
consortium at asu.edu, or mailed to Dr. Colin Elman, Executive Director,
Consortium on Qualitative Research Methods,  Box 872001, Arizona State
University, Tempe, AZ 85287-2001.
