Quantitative Text Analysis Using R - Scraping, Preparing, Visualising and Modelling Data

Informationen zum Autor Julian Bernauer is a Researcher and permanent Scientific Staff at the Mannheim Centre of European Social Research (MZES), University of Mannheim. His interest in QTA started in 2006, when he wrote a master thesis supervised by Prof. Thomas Bräuninger at the University of Konstanz (where he studied Politics and Public Management) analysing speeches of members of the German parliament. The topic of this research and his doctoral studies at the University of Konstanz (finished in 2012) was political representation of different sorts, and he moved on to lecture and study comparative political institutions as a Postdoctoral Researcher and Lecturer (Oberassistent) at the University of Bern. Since 2017, he is a member of the Mannheim Centre of European Social Research (MZES), first as staff in the Data and Methods Unit (DMU), and since 2020 as permanent Scientific Staff and Researcher in the institute's IT department. He is also involved in the management of the MZES. Klappentext This book is for social science students who need to learn the theory of analysis alongside the specifics of the R software package.
