Comparative-historical sociology involves the examination of social structures and events across societies and historical time. In its simplest form, parallel events or social structures in two societies are examined. In its more complex variants, a range of similarities and differences across many societies may be studied. The goal of comparative-historical sociology is to unite differences and similarities in a single, comprehensive framework in order to make sense of diversity in social forms and historical outcomes.

Unless otherwise noted, all Comparative-Historical Workshop meetings are held on Friday from 3:00 to 5:00 at the Center for International and Comparative Studies.  Snacks and beverages are provided.
