The Uses of Studying Primitives: A Note on the Durkheimians, 1890-1940
Prominent among the "internal" factors leading to the Durkheimians' interest in primitive peoples was one of their fundamental methodological-epistemological beliefs. Emile Durkheim pointed out that his method of studying primitive religion "gives a means of renewing the problems which, up to the present, have only been discussed among philosophers," for this approach means that "the problem of knowledge is posed in new terms." The Durkheimians w…

The Sage Handbook of Innovation in Social Research Methods
Social Research is a bourgeoning field. Of course it has many traditions and approaches, but there is a high premium upon thinking differently and thinking anew because social life is never static or wholly predictable. This Handbook, edited by internationally recognized scholars in the field, provides a comprehensive, pitch perfect critical assessment of the field. The main features of the Handbook are: - Clear organization into 4 parts dealing …
Quantitative versus Qualitative is a Distraction: Variations on a Theme by Brewer and Hunter (2006)
Much thinking about the nature of research problems today uses the quant-qual distinction as a master category. This can do more harm than good. The emergence of so-called mixed methods has not alleviated the problem of overemphasizing the differences between quant and qual. This paper discusses how the quant-qual distinction distracts us from consideration of more important issues, and tends to constrain opportunities for innovation. It is writt…
The Dictatorship of the Problem: Choosing Research Methods
It is relatively easy to investigate how to employ a particular research method in the social sciences. It is considerably more difficult to decide which to use. Which method to use is arguably a more important question than how to use that method. ‘ Which method?’ is, at least, the necessarily prior question. One cannot look up how to do something until one has decided what that something is. Methodological innovation depends directly on methodo…
Do Professional Development Schools Reduce Teacher Attrition: Evidence from a Longitudinal Study of 1,000 Graduates
This article describes the findings from a study of professional development schools (PDS) and traditional student teaching elementary education graduates between 1996 and 2004. Specifically, the effects of teacher preparation experiences on persistence in elementary education employment were examined. The study involved mining previously collected data on teacher candidates, their entry into teaching on graduation, and their subsequent persisten…
Occupational Outcomes for Students Earning Two-Year College Degrees: Income, Status, and Equity
Introduction An interesting question in the sociology of knowledge and the politics of scholarship is why scholars studying two-year colleges(1) often conceptualize their research in adversarial terms. Innocent readers, encountering the subject for the first time by studying such works as those by Cohen & Brawer [5] and Brint & Karabel [3] might well wonder if the two books really dealt with the same institutions. Regardless of the reasons for th…

Political connections, professional advancement, and moral education in Durkheimian sociology
Four related aspects of the Durkheimians' work are explored: (1) their political commitments, especially as these are revealed in their sociological works; (2) their support for the democratic "left establishment" in the Third Republic, particularly for the educational reforms initiated by that group; (3) their academic politics, specifically their struggles with philosophy for control of an intellectual field; and (4) their theories of moral edu…

Anachronistic standards and subjective criteria for the definition of a field of study are, of course, two of the most grave flaws in any field of history. Intellectual historians seem to have found it particularly difficult to avoid these two sins of historical method and have consequently often vitiated their works by using either ahistorical or subjective standards of judgment, and sometimes both at once. Indeed, few obviously good rules readi…
