It lacks any sources and does not encompass the different methods. Let's discuss how we can develop this article. --Ghormax 12:10, 25 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The reason this article is lacking is because the longer and more comprehensive article, which was started earlier and has gotten more edits and which more users have worked on, is at comparative government. I've now merged the articles together. Some universities call their department or refer to the academic discipline as "comparative government" and others call it "comparative politics," but they refer to the same thing. —Lowellian (reply) 09:14, 26 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but: MSSD/MDSD and Mill's Method are NOT the SAME! This can be verified in nearly every textbook which discusses methods of comparative politics. MSSD/MSDS are case selection methods, Mill's methods arn't! 130.83.219.183 (talk) 23:23, 13 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

When I changed the position of Lipset's title I had hoped that someone would noticed that the same book has been mentioned twice. Obviously this has not happened. Do all of you want me to decide which of the two entries can be deleted? Khnassmacher (talk) 16:57, 6 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There's really no reason that there should be a whole section summarizing an argument for gendered perspectives on comparative politics. That's way off topic for an introduction to the subfield. 70.198.197.36 (talk) 20:50, 21 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think this article's main description is out of date. According to here, that was what described the field from the 60's to the 80's. Now, "Comparative Politics" does seem to usually refer to inter-country comparisons (please note that although this is an area of interest for me, it is not an area of my expertise).

" Large-n cross-national studies are now a prominent feature in the (comparative) study of politics—something that would have been hard to predict circa 1970s or even 1980s."

add a reliable source

In the section of major contributors in comparative politics,please add a reliable source to the year when The Republic by Plato was published. ʍʍʍʍ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Taqveemwarraich (talk • contribs) 13:41, 8 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

3/4ths of the article is a list of "notable works"

This is not appropriate. The standards for inclusion as one of the "notable works" of comparative politics are also unclear. This would be more appropriate in a specific article on "notable works in comparative politics", but even that would fail wikipedia guidelines in my opinion, as the standards for inclusion seem arbitrary.
