Zusammenfassung: | "What is the use of comparison in historical research? The classic "second wave" scholarship of the 1970s and 1980s fused comparative and historical methods as essential counterparts in causal analysis. Today, however, this fusion has weakened, as has sociologists' commitment to the assumptions that underlay its initial appeal. Historical sociologists today regularly express doubt that cases can be unproblematically compared as though they are independent of one another, that comparison can reliably yield valid causal inference, or that comparative methods can grapple with questions of meaning, sequence, and process that are central to historical sociology. Yet even though these concerns are common in discussion of comparative methods, historical sociologists remain reluctant to abandon comparison altogether, not least because comparisons are still manifestly useful in the research process. In sum, the warrant for comparison in historical sociology needs to be reconsidered, especially in a way that takes these criticisms and concerns fully into account"-- |
