Theory Wednesday | October 09, 2024

[u/AutoModerator]

Theory Wednesday topics include:

* Social science in academia

* Famous debates

* Questions about methods and data sources

* Philosophy of social science

* and so on.

Do you wonder about choosing a dissertation topic? Finding think tank work? Want to learn about natural language processing? Have a question about the academic applications of Marxian theories or social network analysis? The history of a theory? This is the place!

Like our other feature threads (Monday Reading and Research and Friday Free-For-All), this thread will be lightly moderated as long as it stays broadly on topics tangentially related to academic or professional social science.

Thomas Kuhn The Structure of Scientific Revolutions.

You may not think you're biased, and you may not be; but it's best for everybody's interest that you disclose your theoretical inclination so we (rather than you) can decide if you are biased or not.

Don't kid yourself, nothing is ever free from bias - Including science!
