요약	Digital historical archival research is the systematic investigation of the past using digitized primary sources held in online repositories, digital archives, and electronic databases. It combines the interpretive principles of traditional historical archival research with digital tools for search, retrieval, text mining, and visualization, enabling researchers to access geographically dispersed collections, apply computational analysis to large corpora, and reconstruct historical events, processes, and social phenomena from preserved primary evidence.	Comparative historical archival research combines systematic examination of primary archival sources across two or more historical cases — nations, regions, institutions, or time periods — to identify causal patterns, structural similarities, and divergences that single-case histories cannot reveal. It is the method of choice when researchers want to explain why similar or different outcomes emerged across distinct historical contexts using documentary evidence.
