A popular research technique in the early decades of empirical sociology, analytic induction differs fundamentally as a method of social research from conventional variation-based approaches. In \u003ci\u003eAnalytic Induction for Social Research\u003c\/i\u003e, Charles C. Ragin demonstrates that much is gained from systematizing analytic induction. The approach he introduces here offers a new template for conducting cross-case analysis and provides a new set of tools for answering common research questions that existing methods cannot address.\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBreaks new ground in introducing analytic induction as an approach distinct from qualitative comparative analysis.
