On Comparing Democratization Processes
On Comparing Democratization Processes
Opens with a brief consideration of some key questions of comparative method when applied to democratizations that are understood as long‐term, dynamic, and open‐ended processes. It then considers two alternative strategies of comparison that may be particularly appropriate for democratization studies. These are broad comparisons across large regions (such as continents) on the one hand and ‘paired’ national comparisons on the other.
Keywords: comparative method, democratization studies, large regional comparisons, paired comparisons
