The study of comparative politics is the investigation of people and their political arrangements
throughout the world. The primary focus is at the state level of analysis. A series of questions will be posed
applicable to any country of the world in an effort to compare the efficiency and effectiveness of different systems
of government. The three major areas of inquiry are: (1) inputs to government, (2) institutions of government, and (3)
outputs of government. Rates, directions and forces for change will also be examined.
