This book focuses on the methods and approaches in comparative politics while tracing the evolution of the discipline. Exploring its historical legacy through a comparative perspective, it uses research methods and methodologies to critically analyse the approaches discussed in the book.

This unique volume provides an exclusive reading on the dimension of gender in comparative politics. It also investigates the foundational approaches and insights from the perspective of postcolonial societies and diverse regions of the world.

Lucidly written to serve a diversity of readership, this book is an invaluable resource for students, researchers and teachers from the departments of political science, public administration, history and journalism. Owing to its detailed, diverse and rich discussions on the different aspects of these themes, it will be equally useful to researchers in the field of gender studies and comparative politics.
