# What does this section do?
We are interested in narrative analysis and, especially(!), analyzing actual international and (state) foreign policy narratives. How are actions justified, hopes expressed, pasts remembered, and futures imagined? 2/

Closing out my year with a journal editor shocker 🧡

Checking new manuscripts today I reviewed a paper attributing 2 papers to me I did not write. A daft thing for an author to do of course. But intrigued I web searched up one of the titles and that's when it got real weird...

Als ik het goed heb begrepen, krijgen we in het Spuigebouw zelfs geen naamplaatjes meer. We zijn dan alleen nog een nummer.

Heute ist der internationale Aktionstag gegen Gewalt an MΓ€dchen und Frauen und ein erster Schritt wΓ€re es, die Dinge beim Namen zu nennen. Es sind keine "Familiendramen" oder "LiebestragΓΆdien" und Frauen haben auch keine Angst vor Tiefgaragen.
Das Problem sind gewalttΓ€tige MΓ€nner.

Henk Kamp: "In de 25 jaar dat ik Kamerlid en minister ben geweest, was er altijd een centrumlinkse meerderheid. Er is voor het eerst een centrumrechtse meerderheid. Om dat te doen waar bijna iedereen bezorgd over is: het grootschalige misbruik van de asielprocedure." (26 juni 2025)

Are you conducting research combining qualitative cross-case methods (comparative case studies or QCA) with process tracing? ➑️ ** We are looking to show-case your work** ⬅️

Thanks, we know their chapter! We are really looking for practical work to showcase how the PT-QCA combination can work in practice.
November 11, 2025 at 6:58 PM
Thanks, not directly with this question. We are hoping to unearth some new, contemporary examples that are not yet discussed in the methodological literature.
November 11, 2025 at 6:52 PM
So, if you conduct research like this yourself, or if you know a colleague to whom this applies, please get in touch using DM (or send either of us an email)! 5/5
November 11, 2025 at 9:23 AM
The work can by either inductive or deductive, start from PT or start from the cross-case; we want to get to know it all. 4/
November 11, 2025 at 9:23 AM
More specifically, we are looking to show-case work that combines comparative case studies (CCS) or Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) on the one hand, with Process Tracing (PT) on the other. 3/
November 11, 2025 at 9:23 AM
For a book manuscript, Uncovering Causal Symptoms. Case Study Research, Process Tracing, and Qualitative Comparative Analysis, @patrickmello.bsky.social and I are looking for good (preferably published) work that combines cross-case with within-case analysis. 2/
