Is it Possible to Investigate Possible?

Miroslav Jilek

Sažetak

The use of a survey within a social experiment is dictated by the concept and method of the experiment itself. If the research starts from the point of critical sociology; the role of the experiment is investigation and testing of a possible alternative world. All auxiliary and concurrent methods must be in the same line (must necessarily acquire the same role). Although this is not usual practice in traditional sociology, the survey method had to investigate the »possible« in an action experiment. This has been achieved in a satisfactory manner.
The text also questions the still existing problem of a traditional (positivist) use of experiment — the mistake of contamination. Use of one »contaminated« and one »uncontaminated « situation while researching the possible, results in negligible differences.
As well as investigating the »possible«, this study deals also with the potential but still insufficiently practical methodology.
