Rezensionen

"Building on their groundbreaking and innovative comparative case study approach developed over the past two decades, Frances Vavrus and Lesley Bartlett offer another excellent contribution for education and social science researchers. This volume weaves together 11 insightful chapters based on research from around the globe-each followed by thought-provoking discussion questions-that illuminate the key methodological decisions made by the author and the broader methodological insights for scholars seeking to design their own studies." -- Dr. Monisha Bajaj, Professor of International & Multicultural Education, University of San Francisco, USA

" In times like these when uncertainty is the new normal and social systems are becoming more complex and dynamic, the comparative case study (CCS) approach is an innovative framework for the study of education. Lesley Bartlett and Frances Vavrus have assembled 11 chapters that demonstrate the utility of the CCS approach and extend its implications across the three - now famous - axes: vertical, horizontal, and transversal. Education researchers and social scientists more broadly will find this collection inspiring and useful." -- Dr. Oren Pizmony-Levy, Associate Professor and Program Director, International and Comparative Education Program, Department of International and Transcultural Studies, Teachers College, Columbia University, USA
