Resumen

El proyecto Narrativas Analíticas representa un esfuerzo por aclarar y hacer explícito el enfoque adoptado por numerosos investigadores que tratan de combinar las investigaciones históricas y comparadas, con los modelos de rational choice. Con el objetivo de comprender las distintas instancias de origen y cambio de las instituciones, los narradores analíticos insisten en la combinación de un profundo conocimiento del caso con un modelo teórico explícito. Estas exigencias, sin embargo, no diferencian en sí mismo a la Narrativa Analítica de otras investigaciones histórico-comparativas bien diseñadas. El objetivo de este artículo es explicar qué es el enfoque narrativo analítico, y qué  lo distingue de otros enfoques comprometidos con un riguroso abordaje histórico y comparativo. En el libro original y en las respuestas a sus críticos (Bates et al., 1998; Bates et al., 2000b; Bates et al., 2000a), los autores han tratado de subrayar los elementos cruciales del enfoque, pero aun quedan asuntos por sistematizar.
