Method and Measurement in Sociology.

Abstract

Cicourel's 'Method and Measurement in Sociology' was published nearly 52 years ago. It became one of the most influential social science methodology books of the late 20th and early 21st centuries and for many, one of the more controversial. Drawing on a symposium published in 'The International Journal of Social Research Methodology' (19:1, 2016), this keynote session is please to present Cicourel in conversation with a group of noted methodologists about the continuing challenges and relevance of his arguments.
