In his fourth edition of Case Study Research Design and Methods, Robert K. Yin continues to encourage the formation of better case study research. The text provides a technical yet practical guide to aid the committed researcher. It is an effort to promote rigor and to encourage the recognition of the limitations and awareness of the strengths of case study research. Throughout the text, Yin forthrightly addressed criticisms of the method and provided a solid defense of case study research and its breadth as a research method. An unexpected bonus of the text is found in the cross reference table that provides access to a wealth of classic and contemporary case study research.

Zusammenfassung

Bei Fallstudien handelt es sich um ein vielfältiges Untersuchungsdesign, das in unterschiedlichsten Disziplinen Anwendung findet. Die Notwendigkeit einer Fallstudie entsteht dann, wenn das Forschungsziel die Erschließung eines individuellen komplexen Sachverhaltes ist, der mit Hilfe anderer Untersuchungsdesigns kaum erschlossen werden kann.
