Philosophies Underlying Social Science Research Methods

THEMEPhilosophies Underlying Social Science Research Methods

The condition of postmodernity underway has enormous implications for social science research, subjecting our existing epistemologies, philosophies, and methodologies to critical appraisal.

This presentation will profile the major philosophies underlying social science research – from positivism, through phenomenology and structuralism to postmodernism.

In particular, it will draw on the works of leading postmodern thinkers, such as Jacques Derrida, Micheal Foucault, and Jean Baudrillard, to highlight the growing influence of postmodern thought and methodologies on current social science research.

Ultimately, the audience will come to appreciate the extent to which contemporary

Qualitative, and mixed methodologies derive their impetus and inspiration from different philosophical positions.
