[Comparative analysis of health systems: various methodologic aspects].
This paper discusses the comparative analysis of health systems, its relative low level of development, its great importance for training health sector leaders and some of the difficulties and limitations for implementing it transnationally. The appropriate understanding of the sociohistorical conditions and the economic and political context are of germane importance for comparative analyses. Moreover, analysis of the financial aspects of health systems, as well as that of the physical or technological infrastructure, of the human resources, or the organizational structure and also of the health levels bring about particular difficulties which need adequate methodological developments.
