This paper is a Farsi translation of the first chapter of the
second edition of “Theory and Methods in Political
Science” edited by David Marsh and Gerry Stoker. This
chapter was not included in the first edition of the book
previously translated by Haj Yoosefi. The new edition has
major differences with the previous one and the other
chapters in the book are written on the basis of the approach
explained in this introductory chapter. According to the
writers, despite what may seem on the first sight,
ontological and epistemological foundations have a basic
role in political researches. Thus, without clarifying his/her
position in this regard, a researcher cannot embark on a
serious research. As a result, the writers present a three fold
classification of these foundations and try to explain their
differences by bringing sufficient examples. At the end, they
show the importance of these foundations in research
through studying globalization and multilayered
governance. This chapter is translated because of its
importance for political science researchers and lack of such
issues in the realm of methodological studies in political
science.
