The tension between qualitative theorizing and quantitative methods ispervasive in the social sciences, and poses a constant challenge to empiricalresearch. But in science studies as an interdisciplinary specialty, there areadditional reasons why a more reflexive consciousness of the differences amongthe relevant disciplines is necessary. How can qualitative insights from thehistory of ideas and the sociology of science be combined with the quantitativeperspective? By using the example of the lexical and semantic value of wordoccurrences, the issue of qualitatively different meanings of the samephenomena is discussed as a methodological problem. Nine criteria for methodswhich are needed for the development of science studies as an integratedenterprise can then be specified. Information calculus is suggested as a methodwhich can comply with these criteria.
