This paper presents the basic features of Hyperpolitics, a methodology aimed at defining political concepts in a modular and interactive manner. Hyperpolitics has been developed as a book (Hyperpolitics. An Interactive Dictionary of Political Science, University of Chicago Press, 2009) and as a Web site (www.hyperpolitics.net) with the aim of addressing the growing complexity of disciplinary areas in political science while fostering analytical skills and cooperation among scholars with different backgrounds and approaches.
