What is Comparative Politics?
"Comparative politics involves the
systematic comparison of the world's
political systems. It seeks to explain
differences between as well as
similarities among countries. In contrast
to journalistic reporting on a single
country, comparative politics is
particularly interested in exploring
patterns, processes, and regularities
among political systems"
Wiarda 2000

"What is comparative politics? It is two
things, first a world, second a discipline. As a
'world', comparative politics encompasses
political behaviour and institutions in all
parts of the earth. The 'discipline' of
comparative politics is a field of study that
desperately tries to keep up with, to
encompass, to understand, to explain, and
perhaps to influence the fascinating and
often riotous world of comparative politics."
Lane 1997
