What exactly are case studies? What distinguishes case studies from other approaches to research? What are their specific capacities for generating new knowledge? And how exactly will a case study approach be used in Developing Inclusive and Sustainable Creative Economies project? At the centre of the research design for Developing Inclusive and Sustainable Creative Economies (DISCE) are ten case studies. Drawing on the methodological literature (Stake 2005; Easton 2010; Gillham 2010; Swanborn 2010; Remenyi 2012; Yin 2014; Thomas 2016), this report begins with a discussion of the distinctive features of case study research, and why case studies are particularly appropriate and useful for DISCE. It then gives more detail of the specific approach to case study research the DISCE team has developed, and explains how we will generate and gather our data. The report concludes with an overview of the sequencing and a provisional timetable for the ten case studies, and looks ahead to the processes of data analysis and reporting.
