Comparative Political Economy

Comparative Political Economy studies how political institutions, government policies, and economic systems interact across different countries. It compares how countries organize their economies, distribute resources, and manage economic challenges, considering cultural, social, and historical contexts. The goal is to understand how different governance structures influence economic outcomes like growth, inequality, and stability. This field helps explain why countries adopt various policies and economic models, highlighting the relationship between politics and economics in shaping national prosperity and social well-being.
