NASP-CCA Days 2022: Frontiers of Methods in Social and Political Science

NASP – CCA Days 2022

Frontiers of Methods in Social and Political Science 

Collegio Carlo Alberto – Piazza Arbarello 8, Turin 

The NASP-CCA workshop is jointly organised by the Collegio  Carlo Alberto and the PhD programs in Economic Sociology and  Labour Studies (ESLS) and Political Studies (POLS) at the  University of Milan.

This three-day in-person workshop will expose NASP students to  a range of frontier methodological approaches, including  experimental and quasi-experimental approaches, qualitative  and mixed-methods, and survey data research. 

Drawing on their own research, invited scholars will focus on  how to go from a research questions and hypotheses to  selecting, and discarding, methodologies. These methodological  choices will be explained in reference to a wide range of topics  central to social and political sciences, such as social norms,  conflict, intergroup relations, family issues, and education.  

NASP students are invited to present their own doctoral work  and receive comments from attending scholars and students.  Student presentations will last approximately 20 minutes, will be  followed by a 10-minute interaction with an assigned  discussant, and, 15 minutes open questions. Discussants will be  selected from the attending doctoral students.
