L'utilisation de la méthodologie des types-idéaux wéberiens dans l'interprétations qualitative des données - un guide pour l'analyse par types-idéaux. Cet article donne une vue d'ensemble de l'analyse par types-idéaux, telle qu'elle ressort des travaux de Weber et telle qu'elle peut être utilisée dans l'interprétation qualitative des données. L'article comporte quatre parties. En premier lieu, la conception des types-idéaux de Weber est reconstruite à partir de ses écrits. En second, les idées de Weber sont ré-examinées pour dégager une méthodologie en trois étapes qui est, dans une troisième partie, présentée en détail. Les trois étapes de l'analyse par types-idéaux sont décrites et représentent une adaptation aussi bien qu'une application de la pensée de Weber, tout en respectant les besoins de l'analyse Interprétative des données. Enfin, l'auteur utilise une de ses deux études longitudinales menées antérleurement pour montrer comment l'interprétation formelle des données qualitative peut utiliser une méthodologie de types-idéaux et fournir des résultats probants
