Introducción al análisis cualitativo comparado (QCA): conceptos, implementación y aplicaciones en América Latina

Abstract

Qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) makes it possible to explain the presence or absence of an outcome based on its necessary conditions and sufficient causal configurations. The scarcity of introductory literature in Spanish has limited the development of qca in Latin America, whose applications show shortcomings. In response, the author presents its concepts, procedures, and good practices, making a critical assessment of the empirical studies published in this region
