Sammendrag	Comparative Visual Analysis is a qualitative research design that systematically examines and compares visual materials — photographs, videos, artworks, advertisements, or digital images — across two or more cases, groups, time points, or contexts. By applying a consistent analytical framework to multiple visual corpora, the approach reveals similarities, differences, and patterns that would remain invisible when studying a single set of images alone.	Comparative ethnography is a qualitative research design that conducts in-depth ethnographic fieldwork across two or more sites, groups, communities, or cultural settings in order to generate systematic comparisons. Rather than describing a single community in isolation, it traces similarities, differences, and interconnections across cases, producing theoretically grounded insights that no single site could yield alone.
