Abstract

Les termes qualitatif et quantitatif ne s'opposent pas. Ils caractérisent des approches du réel ni antinomiques, ni exclusives. Ils entretiennent des relations très complexes que nous essaierons de simplifier. A quel propos faut-il parler de qualitatif et de quantitatif ? Faut-il situer le problème au niveau de la nature de ce qu'on observe (les phénomènes), au niveau de la façon dont on agit (la politique) ou au niveau de la manière dont on essaie de comprendre la réalité (méthodes d'analyse)? Nous avons délibérément écarté les deux premiers niveaux pour nous consacrer à l'examen du qualitatif dans les méthodes d'analyse de la science régionale. La première section est consacrée à une tentative pour comprendre un peu mieux le sens des termes qualité et quantité et leurs relations: nous y donnons les résultats d'une enquête volontairement naïve et quelques réflexions personnelles ou suggérées par nos lectures. La deuxième section présente une sélection de méthodes d'analyse reliées au qualitatif et qui se développent en science régionale
