Contents:

The lecture provides an overview about the goals, objects and methods of the comparative analysis of political systems. The content emphasis is on the political institutions (e.g. regime types, governmental forms, constitutional bodies) as well as political processes for the forming of the political will and decision-making (e.g. political culture, elections and votes, formation of government). The aim of the lecture is to familiarise the participants with the theoretical and conceptual "case of instruments" of comparative politics and to illustrate its capabilities with examples from research practice.
