What is Globalization?
- Introduction: Globalization on Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy[1]
- Globalization in brief: Global Transformations web [2] or educational materials from the Levin Institute[3]
- Globalisation in depth[4] (educational materials by the Charles University - selected topics from last year´s course)
What is case study?
Read more about case study development! And consider when case studies might be used - as a method of research...
"The case study is most useful for generating hypotheses, whereas other methods are more suitable for hypotheses testing and theory building."[7]
...or as a well developed method in teaching/learning[8]. In this course, it will serve as a tool for joint work on specific globalization theme.
Write it yourselves!
While case study research has its specifics, the writing process is similar to any other academic discourse.
Writing assistant

- If you still need to decide about your theme and focus? Start with reading (for writing) or try prewriting.
- Literature review is a good starting point when you already have some (research or preliminary) question.
- Writing manual is a good overview of writing techniques - pay attention to ethical rules whech need to be observed carefully!
- Model of the Case Study writing - New Zealand 2010: Mining in Schedule 4 Conflict
