Practices of comparing shape how we perceive, organize, and change
the world. Supposedly innocent, practices of comparing play a
decisive role in forming categories, boundaries, and hierarchies;
but they can also give an impetus to question and change such
structures. Like almost no other human practice, comparing pervades
all social, political, economic, and cultural spheres. This volume
outlines the program of a new research agenda that places
comparative practices at the center of an interdisciplinary
exploration. Its contributions combine case studies with
overarching systematic considerations. They show what insights can
be gained and which further questions arise when one makes a
seemingly trivial practice - comparing - the subject of in-depth
research.
