Abstract

A Handbook of Research Methodology in the Social and Economic Sciences provides structured guidance for developing coherent research projects. It examines epistemological paradigms, scientific reasoning, research typologies, and quantitative, qualitative and mixed-methods approaches. The handbook then follows the research process from topic selection and problem formulation to literature reviews, theoretical frameworks, hypotheses, operationalisation and research design. A continuing case study on technology entrepreneurship among Algerian university graduates illustrates successive methodological decisions. Designed for postgraduate students and early-career researchers, the book includes practical examples, common methodological errors and coherence checks to support the systematic development of research projects.
