Resumen

Históricamente, las teorías desarrolladas dentro de la política comparada se han centrado en la evaluación de las instituciones más que en el estudio del comportamiento de los ciudadanos. Sin embargo, las últimas décadas han visto un aumento significativo en el número de estudios que buscan entender el comportamiento político de las personas en distintos contextos. Estas agendas de investigación se han beneficiado de los avances tecnológicos así como del intercambio académico que se ha dado entre diversas regiones del mundo. En primer lugar, los avances tecnológicos facilitan el estudio de opiniones y comportamiento a través de herramientas como el internet. En segundo lugar, el intercambio académico de estudiantes a países en los que se cuenta con un conocimiento de métodos de medición de opinión pública avanzado ha logrado que al regresar esos profesionistas a sus países de origen desarrollen compañías que pueden llevar a cabo estudios académicos de opinión y comportamiento político.
