This book aims to define comparative economics and to illustrate
the breadth and depth of its contribution. It starts with an
historiography of the field, arguing for a continued legacy of
comparative economic systems, which compared socialism and
capitalism, a field which some argued should have been replaced by
institutional economics after the fall of the Berlin Wall. The
process of transition to market capitalism is reviewed, and itself
exemplifies a new combination of comparative analysis with a focus
on institutional development. Going beyond, chapters broadening the
application of comparative analysis and applying it to new issues
and approaches, including the role and definition of institutions,
subjective wellbeing, inequality, populism, demography, and novel
methodologies. Overall, comparative economics has evolved in the
past 30 years, and remains a powerful approach for analyzing
important issues.
