The globalized world today is becoming very advanced in all areas and therefore has become very competitive. This then allows the use of a comparative approach in society. Comparative, an activity derived from the word comparazione meaning to compare, is defined as research that uses data that are compared between at least two countries (Ragin, 1987). This comparative study is a very important phenomenon in the field of social sciences and started in the 1960s and 1970s. It is used as an essential form of investigative tool in the analysis of operations between different countries with the aim of formulating solutions for underdeveloped countries and providing details on the development of social structuring in public policy making (Ghorra-Gobin, discussion paper no. 40). To carry out a comparative analysis/study, a case study is usually carried out between two countries. The goal is to foster a better understanding of how and why certain scenarios occur in one country and how they relate to the same scenario in the other country. One such example is the political stability of Guyana (an underdeveloped country) with a score of 26% compared to the political stability of the United Kingdom (a developed country) with a score of 66% (World Governance Indicators). A qualitative and quantitative format is used to evaluate systems within the government and its political affiliates. Charles Ragin states that this comparative method can be used as a means of experience in using data from one country to another in order to improve stability. The main objective of the comparative approach method is mainly to improve the efficiency, effectiveness, growth and development in underlying countries. -developed countries and......mid-paper......edge publishers.
