These debates enable us to construct a shortlist of the strengths and weaknesses of case study as a research design (see Box 3.2). To strengths and weaknesses, I have added a third shortlist of desirable qualities: that is, qualities which case study research – like other forms of research – should strive to achieve, but may in practice fall short of. In this section we will discuss the strengths and desirable qualities, while the following section will focus – at somewhat greater length – on both the perceived weaknesses and the responses that have been made to them.
