| Abstract: | The philosophy and implications of the case-study method have received considerable attention and then there are a number of standard texts on the approach. The method is also gaining acceptance, along with other qualitative methods, within the small business and entrepreneurial research community. Yet there has been little discussion of the distinctive philosophical consequences of applying the case-study approach in this area. This paper addresses this gap by mapping the paradigms adopted by small business and entrepreneurial case-study researchers. |
