Abstract
This chapter builds on the findings presented in Chapter 2, using fuzzy set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA) to explore issues that our regression models struggled to disentangle. After reviewing some of the key aspects of the approach, we outline a three-step model of fsQCA that allows us to drill beneath the headline findings of some of our regression models. Focusing on the example of family policy expenditure we explore the ways in which societal values and welfare regimes appear to interact.
