19 November 2014. From 18:30 | Workshop | Spanish | IEMed, BarcelonaThe social sciences in general, and migration in particular, are an extremely extensive and complex field of study that poses great difficulties when approached from a scientific perspective.
The conference aims to examine the wide variety of scientific research methods required by the complexity of the social sciences as well as migration. Along with an examination of the respective strengths and weaknesses, some examples highlight the complementarity and possibilities of combining different types of techniques in order to meet the objectives of the research.
