On December 12-14, the QCA Paper Development Workshop and the QCA Expert Workshop took place in Antwerp at the Antwerp Management School (AMS), hosted by Bart Cambré (AMS) and Benoît Rihoux (UCLouvain) and the co-organizers of the Paper Development Workshop Julia Leib (Uni Leipzig), Christoph Niessen (Universiteit Leiden), and Christian Rupietta (Queen’s University Belfast). The workshops brought together a group of about 50 experts and practitioners from around the globe to discuss methodological innovations and empirical applications. Together with Benoît Rihoux, I co-chaired a paper development roundtable, where we discussed and commented upon four empirical applications.
