After a relaxing weekend it's back to the reading. So I thought I'd share with you all the phrase of the day. Mind you, this is defining the "narrative strategy" within social sciences...
"While the nominal strategy (using nominal variables) relies upon Mill's logic of similarities and differences and is therefore deterministic, and the ordinal strategy allows for (probabilistic) analyses of concomitant variation, the narrative strategy addresses phenomena such as revolutions as 'the product of unique, temporally ordered and sequentially unfolding events that occur within cases'."
Clear. As. Mud.
