Abstract

This paper utilises a distinction between (i) orthodox case studies that are informed by a logical positivist epistemology and are conducted in variants of linear progression according to tightly defined advanced designs and (ii) emergent case studies that are informed by alternative epistemological positions and may advance through unforeseen circumstances during the research. Recognising that the latter approaches may be deemed as lacking systematisation by logical-positivists because of their non-adherence to a predefined design, the article utilises ideas of bracketing and deserialization as a means to composing a systematic record of such case studies and learning from that record when reporting the research.
