Comparative method in political science is currently going through a critical time, particularly after the failure of developmentalism, and of the classical paradigm of comparative government. This crisis stems from questioning universalism, mono-determinism and the compartmentalism between political science and history. New paradigms are conceived in order to overcome this.

Comparative method in political science is currently going through a critical time, particularly after the failure of developmentalism, and of the classical paradigm of comparative government. This crisis stems from questioning universalism, monodeterminism and the compartmentalism between political science and history. New paradigms are now conceived in order to overcome this crisis: culturalism, social action, historical sociology. Can they be used to construct a new kind of comparison? Can they deal effectively with the new objects of comparison which derive from the increasing differentiation of political situations and political practices that we currently observe?

In political science, comparative method is currently experiencing a crisis, particularly after the failure of developmentalism & the classical paradigm of comparative government, that stems from questioning universalism, monodeterminism, & the compartmentalism between political science & history. New paradigms designed to overcome this crisis are described, including culturalism, social action, & historical sociology. Ways that they can contribute to constructing a new kind of comparison, & whether they deal effectively with the new objects of comparison that derive from the increasing differentiation of political situations & political practices are assessed.
