Metodologi og metode: om forskellen på værktøjer og forståelsesrammer og hvad den betyder i praksis

kvantitativ metode, kvalitativ metode, variansorienteret, procesorienteret metodologi, meningsorienteret metodologiResumé
Denne artikel har to formål. For det første introducerer den skellet mellem metode og metodologi. For det andet beskriver den kort de tre metodologier, der dominerer inden for samfundsvidenskaberne – den variansorienterede, den procesorienterede og den meningsorienterede – og illustrerer brugen af dem med et gennemgående eksempel. Metoder er redskaber. De kan være kvalitative eller kvantitative. Metodologier er forståelsesrammer, der bedst forstås som sprog. Ligesom man ikke kan gøre sig forståelig på et andet sprog ved at oversætte ord for ord, kan man ikke uden videre overføre logikken fra én metodologi til en anden. Det betyder ikke, at oversættelser nødvendigvis er umulige, men at det er meget svært at oversætte uden at anderkende sproglige eller – i dette tilfælde – metodologiske forskelle.
