dc.description.abstractThis case study describes and reflects on an original research process on Economic and Social Human Rights in Guinea-Bissau between 2014 and 2024. Human rights research is multidisciplinary, with sociology and political science bearing the greatest weight, as they are closely connected due to their focus on social structures, political institutions, and processes of governance and government, but law, history, psychology, social psychology, economics, and anthropology also must be considered when defining a research methodology on this topic. The challenge of this case study is to show what has been done over 10 years in the research for a methodology to articulate these disciplines, with the definition of different samples, with data collection through face-to-face surveys, presentations of results, debates, interviews, and publications, with the considering of analyses of other collateral themes, to produce a consistent and well-founded analysis. What we hope to be able to share are, above all, two aspects of research in general: first, designing a methodology is an activity that is built on a more artisanal logic. In other words, it must be thought out and carried out with patience, persistence, and great care regarding "ready-made" stereotypes methods. Second, the larger and more complex the problem to be investigated and its social context, the more time is needed for research that coherently and satisfactorily answers the hypotheses put forward. It is the answers to these methodological questions that we have tried to find over the years that we hope to summarize and present in this chapter.pt_PT
