Walking Seminar 3 Discussion Topic: “The case” (Re-used from TWS @ UvA)
- Most of us talk-walkers work on a case. A case is neither unique, nor representative. So, what is a case? And what does it imply to do a case study?
- Which case studies in the literature do you find inspiring? How do the authors present their case? What about that is similar to / different from other case studies?
- What is the case you are studying and of what is it a case? What is specific about it? What does it share with other cases?
- In which ways does your case study differ from other methods that you come across in the literature on your topic?
- Oh, you are not doing a case study? Good. Which form does your research take? And what are the differences with case studies?
