This timely Handbook offers a wide-ranging examination of
contemporary comparative policy analysis (CPA), advancing the
understanding of methodology in the study of comparative public
policies, and broadening the array of methods and techniques
deployed by scholars in the field. Internationally acclaimed
contributors overcome the current concentration on quantitative
techniques, engaging with a more conscious and comprehensive
selection of methods to improve the quality of CPA. Providing an
overview of the major theoretical issues currently under discussion
in CPA and the methodological shift in social sciences, this
Handbook argues for the utilization of a range of alternative
approaches to maximize the utility of the research. Far-reaching
and comprehensive, this Handbook offers an insightful overview of
methods for researchers of CPA looking to broaden their
methodological repertoire. It will also be useful for students of
public policy and the social sciences in need of a guide to
contemporary research methods and applications. Contributors
