Implementation strategies: recommendations for specifying and reporting (2013, background): “While this may seem simplistic or self-evident, Gerring [61] draws our attention to three problems that ‘…plague the social science lexicon: homonymy (multiple meanings for the same term), synonymy (different terms with the same, or overlapping, meanings), and instability (unpredictable changes in t”
Is Social Capital a Good Concept? (2012, unknown): “Although Gerring (2001, 2012) in later work employs somewhat different labels, the content remains essentially the same and we therefore opt for using the betterknown original labels.”
Complex Causal Relations and Case Study Methods: The Example of Path Dependence (2006, background): “Methodological choices involve trade-offs among criteria that are individually desirable but that often conflict with one another (Gerring 2001).”
