Diversity and gender equality are key buzzwords within the private sector in Sweden. The aim of my thesis was to interrogate how diversity is understood within the private sector in Sweden and identify key motivations for its popularity. I also sought to understand how those who embody diversity experience and understand discourses around diversity and gender equality. The research was conducted in Stockholm, where I worked as a diversity worker from February to June 2016 with a diversity consulting company. The research adopted mixed methodologies, which included partial participant observation at one public event in may 2016, work as a diversity consultant as method, document analysis and semi structured interviews with four diversity managers and three racialized women who provided their insights that have shaped the research. My findings reveal that diversity is conceptualized in a number of ways; it can be seen as a fluffy term that encompasses all and everything; it can signif...

Much of the diversity literature is written by US or Anglo-Saxon scholars and suggests that diversity management represents a break from equality and equal opportunities at work. The purpose of this book is to restore diversity to its national contexts, and in particular to assess its relationship with equal employment legislation when such legislation exists. Countries covered by this volume are Austria, Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, India, Italy, the Netherlands, Pakistan, Singapore, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, the United Kingdom, the USA.

This paper critically reviews the literature on managing diversity through human resource management (HRM). We discuss the major issues and objectives of managing diversity and examine the state of human resource diversity management practices in organizations. Our review shows that inequality and discrimination still widely exist and HRM has focused mainly on compliance with equal employment opportunity (EEO) and affirmative action (AA) legislation. Less attention has been paid to valuing, developing and making use of diversity. Our review reveals limited literature examining how diversity is managed in organizations through effective human resource management. We develop a framework that presents strategies for HR diversity management at the strategic, tactical and operational levels. Our review also discusses the implications for practice and further research.

In this article, we argue for a new approach—the comparative case study approach—that attends simultaneously to macro, meso, and micro dimensions of case-based research. The approach engages ...
3. HOW TO CONDUCT COMPARATIVE CASE STUDIES Comparative case studies essentially involve six steps, which should ideally be undertaken in the order shown below (see also figure 1). The programme's theory of change (see Brief No. 2, Theory of Change) and the KEQs guide the focus and selection of the cases and the dimensions that will be studied.
Comparative Case Studies have been suggested as providing effective tools to understanding policy and practice along three different axes of social scientific research, namely horizontal (spaces), vertical (scales), and transversal (time). The chapter, first, sketches the methodological basis of case-based research in comparative studies as a ...

Comparative Case Study 371 numerous writings on the case study and comparative case study methods. We are not intending to provide an array of novel reasons to use the case study method. Rather, we are attempting to integrate observations regarding this method into a coherent program for its use in a research effort, with particular attention ...
Comparative Case Studies. What is a case study and what is it good for? In this article, we review dominant approaches to case study research and point out their limitations. Next, we propose a new approach - the comparative case study approach - that attends simultaneously to global, national, and local dimensions of case-based research. We contend that new approaches are necessitated by ...
3.2 Case-Based Research in Comparative Studies In the past, comparativists have oftentimes regarded case study research as an alternative to comparative studies proper. At the risk of oversimpli-cation: methodological choices in comparative and international educa-tion (CIE) research, from the 1960s onwards, have fallen primarily on
Further, we argue that the second logic has been under- utilized in the field of Comparative and International Education (though see Bray et al., 2014 on holistic methodology). Process-oriented approaches and the comparative case study heuristic The comparative case study heuristic adopts what Maxwell called a process orientation.

Abstract. Comparative case studies involve the analysis and synthesis of the similarities, differences and patterns across two or more cases that share a common focus or goal in a way that produces knowledge that is easier to generalize about causal questions - how and why particular programmes or policies work or fail to work. They may be ...

3.1.2 Presentation of a case study. It can be a tough job for a researcher to report a case study because of the tricky type of the approach. The hard part is to present the findings in a specific way so the case study is easy to understand by the reader.
In this article, we argue for a new approach-the comparative case study approach-that attends simultaneously to macro, meso, and micro dimensions of case-based research. The approach engages two logics of comparison: first, the more common compare and contrast; and second, a "tracing across" sites or scales.
Comparative Case Study Analysis. Mono-national case studies can contribute to comparative research if they are composed with a larger framework in mind and follow the Method of Structured, Focused Comparison (George & Bennett, 2005). For case studies to contribute to cumulative development of knowledge and theory they must all explore the same ...

This study attempts to answer when to write a single case study and when to write a multiple case study. It will further answer the benefits and disadvantages with the different types. The literature review, which is based on secondary sources, is about case studies. Then the literature review is discussed and analysed to reach a conclusion ...
Single Case Studies The study of a single case is considered comparative if it uses or develops concepts applicable to other cases, and/or seeks to make larger inferences. Ideal to examine ^deviant cases, to generate hypotheses, to develop new classifications. Inferences based upon one case are less secure.
1. Introduction 'At the very least, comparative urbanism must be practiced in a conscious manner: comparative conceptual frameworks and comparative methodologies must be explicated and argued' (Nijman, Citation 2007, p. 3). This citation skilfully discloses the challenges associated with comparative research and it also applies to comparative case study research.

Human-Environment Relationship: Comparative Case Studies. C.G. Knight, in International Encyclopedia of the Social & Behavioral Sciences, 2001 A comparative case study is a research approach to formulate or assess generalizations that extend across multiple cases. The nature of comparative case studies may be explored from the intersection of comparative and case study approaches.
