Description
Sanford Schram and Brian Caterino bring together prominent scholars to discuss the state of Political Science, with a focus on reinvigorating the discipline by connecting it to present-day political struggles.
The contributors consider key topics such as the usefulness of rational choice theory, the ethical limits of pluralism, and the connection between political science scholarship and political struggles. This volume builds on the debate in the discipline over the significance of Bent Flyvbjerg's work, which has been a point of contention in recent years.
Featuring contributions from leading experts in the field, this book provides a thought-provoking exploration of the future of Political Science and its relevance to contemporary politics.
