Abstract

In this paper we compare the use of the comparative method in constitutional law and in political science. To do this, we have reconstructed the development of both disciplines around the academic study of the State, since its emergence in the Faculty of Law in the 19th century, and its gradual complexity due to the progressive autonomization of political science starting in the first half of the 20th century. This itinerary allowed us to appreciate the laborious process of construction and mutation of a field of study in the social sciences, in connection with different historical contexts.
