Talk:Comparative historical research

message: This page is moving forward-- good job all who have contributed recently.  I made some changes and tried to point to areas that need to be developed more.   Please look at the article edit history for pointers to some of the areas to work on some more-- although that is not the full list-- so please continue with the other improvements you have planned.  --Htw3 04:02, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Overlap/ Merge? 

message: Though it's strange to find it there in the body of the article, I want to second the comment imbedded in the opening paragraph of this article: 
:"Historical comparative sociology differs from historical sociology by focusing only on three main issues. These issues are causal relationships, processes over time, and comparisons. It does not allow interpretive approaches (this is very contradictory to some of the following passages, please revise)"...
There are strong traditions of both interpretive and causal analysis in historical comparative sociology, as well as scholars integrating both. DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 10:48, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Interpretive Historical Comparative Sociology

message: Comparative historical research is used not only in History and Sociology, as mentioned in the current draft of this article, but also in Politics, Religious Studies, Policy Studies, and many more fields. DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 07:03, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Interdisciplinarity of Method

message: I have some serious issues with the section on recent studies. The noted reference seems like a shameless self-promotion. Please check the works against Google Scholar, for instance.
As it stands now, the whole section would be better deleted. Of course, if someone is up for the task, the section could be also rewritten.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.250.45.137 (talk) 06:55, 19 July 2016 (UTC)

message: I propose merging comparative historical research and comparative research as both deal with the research metholodology in social sciences. Please discuss here, I will place templates so long. Waddie96 (talk) 11:56, 22 September 2018 (UTC)

text: If merge happens I'd suggest mergine comparative historical research into comparative research rather than the other way around -- comparative historical research being the more specific of the two valereee (talk) 14:30, 23 November 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Oppose merge on the grounds that historical research methods are independently notable from the broader topic of cultural analysis. This proposal also doesn't account for similar pages such as Comparative history. Klbrain (talk) 19:50, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
