Are you using case studies in your own research, supervising case-based research or interested in doing a case study in the future?
If so, join our webinar presented by the authors of the 2021 JIBS Decade Award winning article Theorizing from case studies: Towards a pluralist future for international business research.The authors will discuss the key arguments from their 2011 paper, in particular the different forms that theorizing from case studies can take. They will adopt a critical stance towards inductive theory building and recommend contextualized explanation as a promising alternative to doing case studies. They will also cover developments in case research since the publication of their 2011 paper, not just in international business but in management and the social sciences more generally. They will share with the audience what they see as the most exciting opportunities for case research in the future. Participants in the webinar will gain a state-of-the-art understanding of case study methodology and an appreciation of the various options for achieving contextualized explanation in their studies.
This is a free webinar, but registration is required.
