  1. Formal concept analysis framework as a tool that broaden QCA technique: analyzing democratic development Dmitry Zaytsev, Ass. Prof., Department of Public Policy, Higher School of Economics

  2. FCA opportunities broaden QCA • Putting forward Hypothesis • Outcome definition • Model Building • Coding / Calibration • Minimizations • Visualization • Cross-case interpretation

  3. Putting forward Hypothesis • 2 < 22 > Violation of check and balances system + Restriction of civil liberties ==> Defects of political competition; • 5 < 19 > Restriction on independence of media + Restriction of civil liberties + Defects of political competition ==> Violation of freedom of association;

  4. Coding / Calibration Figure 3. Lattice on Formal institutions / personalizm (BTI index)* *P – Performance of democratic institutions, C - Commitment to democratic institutions

  5. Minimization reduce 45 parameters of democratic development to 7: • Weaknessofformalinstitutions/personalizm • Violationoffreedomofassociation • Violation of check and balances system • Restrictionofcivilliberties • Defectsoffeedbackmechanism • Governmentalinterventionsineconomy • Military - fourthpower 1 < 7 > FI < 0,4 + CL < 0,4  DI < 0,4,

  6. Visualization

  7. 1 < 6 > FI =[100%]=> < 6 > CL; 2 < 7 > CL =[86%]=> < 6 > DI; 3 < 7 > CL =[86%]=> < 6 > FI; 4 < 6 > CL DI =[83%]=> < 5 > FI;

  8. Cross-case interpretation Figure 6 suggest a particular order in which parameters disintegrate with the decline of democracy Decline Functioning of Government and Electoral Process Regress in Associational and Organizational Rights, Political Pluralism and Participation, and Rule of Law The last to be restricted are Personal Autonomy and Individual Rights and Freedom of Expression and Beliefs.

  9. The Challenges of Using FCA • Can’t test causality hypothesis • Multiplying conversions • Time & Dynamics • Searching method • Do methods for methods
