Abstract
The article by Chase-Dunn, Pallas, and Kentor (1982) presents a critique of previously used research designs and two “new” multilevel designs for testing propositions about the world-system. Recognizing that world-system analysis presents researchers with methodological conundrums such as the degrees of freedom problem, we welcome attempts to adapt designs or create new ones that can enable tests of research hypotheses derived from theories of the world-system. Because the research design, with its many potential ramifications, has a vital place in the research process, discussions of the subject are important and require critical reading.
