A New Method in Qualitative Research: The Continuously Customized Sociopolitical Analysis Model (CCSA)

Classical research methods applied in the analysis of social and political structures typically rely on fixed theoretical frameworks and predefined variables. However, conflict zones, multi-actor structures, and constantly changing power balances often render these methods insufficient for fully capturing social realities. This study introduces the Continuously Customized Sociopolitical Analysis Model (CCSA), developed to overcome such limitations, and illustrates its application through practical examples. The fundamental assumption of the model is that social and political structures are not static but process-oriented, dynamic, and too multilayered to be analyzed independently of their context. The model's analytical capacity is assessed through the case studies of Syria, Ukraine, Libya, and Turkey.
