Getting Started
Getting Started: An Introduction to Research Methods follows on from the successful introductory text Social Science Research in New Zealand (Davidson and Tolich 1999, 2003). The text is aimed at university and polytechnic students who are approaching research methods for the first time. The text will also be of interest to those who wish to develop their social science research skills. Key areas covered by this text include: an introduction to social science research, common uses and different research methods, research design, sampling methodologies and qualitative and quantitative techniques, research best practice and ethics, and writing up results. To supplement the text the authors have also developed instructor resources: a series of PowerPoint™ slides and an instructor manual linked to each chapter.
Stopping War, Seeking Justice
Six essays of analysis, strategy and tactics for the American antiwar movement. They begin with a unique look at the 'war on terrorism' following the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, then offer a strategy to combine mass demonstrations with electoral activity to build a broad nonpartisan alliance against the Bush administration, supporters of the war and the far right.
New Paths to Socialism
Essays on the Mondragon Cooperatives in Spain, the Solidarity and Green Economies, and their meaning for both Marxism and Socialism today.
Peace and Freedom
Two great social causes held center stage in American politics in the 1960s: the civil rights movement and the antiwar groundswell in the face of a deepening American military commitment in Vietnam. In Peace and Freedom, Simon Hall explores two linked themes: the civil rights movement's response to the war in Vietnam on the one hand and, on the other, the relationship between the black groups that opposed the war and the mainstream peace movement. Based on comprehensive archival research, the book weaves together local and national stories to offer an illuminating and judicious chronicle of these movements, demonstrating how their increasingly radicalized components both found common cause a...
Social Science Research in New Zealand
"In this updated edition of their popular textbook, Carl Davidson and Martin Tolich present an integrated view of social science research: its underlying philosophy, goals, ethics and methods ... the range of contributors means that the book is multidisciplinary in nature and the New Zealand context examines the questions of who we are and how we can be studied. Practical guidance is given throughout the text and its appendices on matters such as questionnaire construction, levels of measurement, statistical data analysis and sampling error calculation. The question of ethics is raised and discussed at length, as is the use of computers in social science research. A comprehensive bibliography, suggestion for further reading, and an index provide useful reference material."--Back cover.

The New Radicals in the Multiversity
During the late 1960s, when students all over American were practicing direct democracy on campus by waging massive student strikes and taking over their university buildings, the three essays collected here for the first time were among the most widely read pieces of student radical literature. Their author, Carl Davidson, was national vice-president and inter-organizational secretary of the SDS. Starting from the sociologists' conclusion that modern universities are knowledge factories designed to serve the Military Industrial Complex, Davidson, in these essays, explored various analogies and connections between students and the working class and outlined a theory of student syndicalism th...
