Shrnutí	Multiple case-based biographical research combines the cross-case replication logic of multiple case study design with the in-depth life-history orientation of biographical research. Each individual biography is treated as a bounded case, examined first on its own terms, and then analysed comparatively across cases to identify patterns, contrasts, and transferable insights about how lives are shaped by social, historical, and structural forces.	Comparative biographical research is a qualitative design that gathers in-depth life-story accounts from multiple participants and systematically compares them to identify structural patterns, commonalities, and divergences across individual biographies. Rooted in the sociological life-history tradition, it moves beyond single-case description to generate broader theoretical insights about how social conditions, historical contexts, and personal agency shape individual trajectories.
