Language: English
U.S. academics continue to lend priority to the study of problems in the Global North and supposedly “general” models of social processes based on empirical inquiries in their own country. Overall, senior faculty in economics, political science, and sociology discourage doctoral study of phenomena beyond US borders. This creates startlingly large lacunae in disciplinary social-science knowledge over time. Findings are based on a study of social-science inquiry on eight U.S. university campuses during the last years.

Analysis, Multiple Correspondence Analysis and Euclidian Cluster Analysis;
ii) a hands-on training in using the program SPAD to conduct GDA;
iii) presentations of sociological research that applies GDA methods;
iv) and the chance to discuss own research projects with experienced researchers.
Teaching will be in English.
