Podsumowanie	Interpretive multiple case study is a qualitative research design in which the researcher studies two or more bounded cases in depth, using an interpretivist stance to understand how participants construct meaning within each setting. Rather than seeking law-like generalizations, it aims to generate rich, context-sensitive understanding that is then compared across cases to reveal patterns, contrasts, and theoretical insights.	Comparative case study is a qualitative research design in which two or more bounded cases are studied in depth and then systematically compared to identify similarities, differences, and patterns across contexts. Rooted in Yin's replication logic and Stake's multiple case framework, it is particularly suited to questions that ask how or why a phenomenon unfolds differently — or similarly — across distinct settings, populations, or time periods.
