Dear URPE community,

I am a master's in social science student at San Francisco State University and 
I am in the process of developing a topic for my master's thesis. 

I was wondering if anyone knows of books or articles that discuss research 
methods in political economy from a Marxist perspective. In social science, at 
least with many of the professors I have to work with, are not very sympathetic 
to theory and are very empirical. It seems to me that radical social science is 
self-consciously aware that we approach the study of society with 
presuppositions and theory, whether or not we realize it. 

I would prefer to have references to research methods that are founded 
on "Classical Marxism", but I am certainly open to variations on that or any 
other radical paradigm.

Thanks very much!

Robin Chang
