Comparative politics : rationality, culture, and structure

Comparative Politics: Rationality, Culture, and Structure is a completely revised second edition of the volume that guided thousands of scholars through the intellectual demands and gratifications of comparative political science. Retaining a focus on the field's research schools, it now pays parallel attention to the pragmatics of causal research. Mark Lichbach begins with a review of discovery, explanation and evidence and Alan Zuckerman argues for explanations with social mechanisms. Ira Katznelson, writing on structuralist analyses, Margaret Levi on rational choice theory, and Marc Ross on culturalist analyses, assess developments in the field's research schools. Subsequent chapters explore the relationship among the paradigms and current research: Joel Migdal examines the state, Mark Blyth adds culturalist themes to work on political economy, Etel Solingen locates the international context of comparative politics, Doug McAdam, Charles Tilly, and Sidney Tarrow address contentious politics, Robert Huckfeldt explores multi-level analyses, Christopher Anderson describes nested voters, Jonathan Rodden examines endogenous institutions, Isabela Mares studies welfare states, and Kanchan Chandra proposes a causal account of ethnic politics. The volume offers a rigorous and exciting assessment of the past decade of scholarship in comparative politics.
