Cumulating the Intellectual Gold of Case Study Research.
Rodgers, Robert; Jensen, Jason L.
Public Administration Review, v61 n2 p235-46 Mar-Apr 2001
Looks at criticisms of public administration research: (1) knowledge in the field is not being accumulated, and (2) the research has low quality. Proposes meta-analysis as a solution to the first problem. Suggests that quality judgments should be based on knowledge cumulation, which acknowledges the value of all research methods.
