THE COMPARATIVE METHOD

Why we compare Countries?


What is COMPARATIVE METHOD?
The comparative method in the study of
political science brings into focus
contemporary political institutions and
practices of various countries at different
periods of history.

differences in:
 The structures and systems of the government of the countries
 Laws and constitutions
 Judicial systems
 Local government units
 Electoral processes

comparative approach has been
very helpful to political scientists
in prescribing solutions to certain
political problems.

to government leaders the different
processes of political institutions and their
various aspects, and gives them the
opportunity to select the best that can be
adopted and suited to present conditions.
