Abstract
Abstract Abstract: In this chapter, the current state of qualitative research in political science is first characterized through an examination of three forms of research that are widely regarded as qualitative, namely research that employs the methods of qualitative comparative analysis (QCA), process tracing, and ethnography. Next, the current state of qualitative research is characterized through a discussion of different conceptions in political science as to what is distinctive of qualitative research in general. Lastly, this twofold characterization is put into perspective by looking into how the current state of qualitative research in political science compares to that in other social sciences.
