Abstract
International comparative planning studies is a growing field of planning research that enjoys increasing recognition. In Europe in particular, various approaches have emerged over recent decades that can be considered established in the scholarly literature. However, a closer look at the literature reveals some weaknesses, particularly against the background of the methodological quality criteria of social science comparative research. For example, explanatory comparisons are rare in comparative planning studies. Often, case study research designs are chosen, while large N studies and qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) are still rarely used. This paper summarises these weaknesses and points out avenues for further development.English title: How can we best compare different planning systems?
