Description:

This work promotes a new approach to comparative politics that transcends the debate about the future of the discipline. The unifying theme of the work is a theoretically informed comparative analysis. Students of politics should find this work useful in assessing the field of comparative politics.

Synopsis:

The field of comparative politics traditionally has been divided into two camps: on the one hand, quantitatively driven work on a broad scale; on the other, more qualitative area studies. This edited collection promotes a new approach to comparative politics: theoretically informed comparative analysis. The contributors' essays are innovative in their interweaving of case studies of the political situations in particular regions (from the United States to Colombia to Mali) with the project of political theorizing.
