สรุป	Multiple case-based ethnography is a qualitative research design that applies sustained ethnographic fieldwork across two or more purposefully selected cases or sites and then compares the resulting thick descriptions to identify patterns, contrasts, and theoretical insights that would be invisible in a single-site study. It combines the contextual depth of ethnography with the comparative logic of multiple case study analysis.	Case study research is a qualitative research design that investigates a specific phenomenon, individual, group, organisation, or event in depth within its real-world context. Systematised by Robert K. Yin in 1984, it supports single-case and multiple-case designs and draws on multiple data sources — interviews, observation, documents, and artefacts — to build a rich, contextualised account of a bounded unit.
