Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: In this paper we show how an interpretative methodology of narrative analysis is beneficial for political scientists and the understanding of political phenomena. Starting with open-ended interviews about the change process of two U.S. city administrations, we concentrated on the stories people told. Guiding our interpretations is the idea of enthymeme from classical rhetoric. Enthymeme is an argument that has one or more missing parts, and the process of filling in the missing part of the argument is the method we used to analyze what the storyteller said explicitly as well as what they implied. This paper is a step by step demonstration of our method of narrative analysis and an illustration of how this method can be used.
