Call for articles
Graduate Journal of Social Science
The Graduate Journal of Social Science is looking for papers by
graduate students (Masters to Post-Doc) with a focus on
interdisciplinary methodology in the social science. Discussion
papers, book reviews, conference reviews are also welcome.
Deadline for submission is the 24the of November 2003. All
details on the modalities of submission are to be found at
http://www.gjss.org
GJSS publications are expected to investigate methodological
issues of interdisciplinary relevance (that is, explicitly or
implicitly concerning at least two social sciences). Social
science methodology is understood to encompass all analytic,
theoretical, interpretive, instrumental and physical tools used
for the acquisition of empirical data in research.
Contributors can draw upon quantitative issues (e.g. the choice
of measurement indicators, the production and use of statistics,
the relevance of quantitative data gathered by the natural
sciences) and qualitative ones (including for instance the use
of narrative and discourse analysis; the meaning, practice and
value of objectivity in field work and interpretation; the role
of the social scientist as subject of the investigation and
bearer/creator of knowledge). Essays will also be welcomed
regarding the interplay between knowledge production/
interpretation and methodology, the possibility of maintaining a
distinction between normative and descriptive research and the
(possibility/impossibility of) interaction between natural and
social science methodologies.
