The Oxford Handbook of Historical Institutionalism
The Oxford Handbook of Historical Institutionalism offers an authoritative and accessible state of the art analysis of the historical institutionalism research tradition in Political Science. Devoted to the study of how temporal processes and events influence the origin and transformation of institutions that govern political and economic relations, historical institutionalism has grown considerably in the last two decades. With its attention to past, present, and potential future contributions to the research tradition, the volume represents an essential reference point for those interested in historical institutionalism. Written in accessible style by leading scholars, thirty eight chapters detail the contributions of historical institutionalism to an expanding array of topics in the study of comparative, American, European, and international politics.

The Oxford handbook of political leadership
Rapidly increasing area of research *Comprehensive and wide reaching volume *Contributions from leading international scholars in the field Political leadership has made a comeback. It was studied intensively not only by political scientists but also by political sociologists and psychologists, Sovietologists, political anthropologists, and by scholars in comparative and development studies from the 1940s to the 1970s. Thereafter, the field lost its way with the rise of structuralism, neo institutionalism, and rational choice approaches to the study of politics, government, and governance. Recently, however, students of politics have returned to studying the role of individual leaders and the exercise of leadership to explain political outcomes. The list of topics is nigh endless: elections, conflict management, public policy, government popularity, development, governance networks, and regional integration. In the media age, leaders are presented and stage managed spun as the solution to almost every social problem. Through the mass media and the Internet, citizens and professional observers follow the rise, impact, and fall of senior political officeholders at closer quarters than ever before. This Handbook encapsulates the resurgence by asking, where are we today? It orders the multidisciplinary field by identifying the distinct and distinctive contributions of the disciplines. It meets the urgent need to take stock. It brings together scholars from around the world, encouraging a comparative perspective, to provide a comprehensive coverage of all the major disciplines, methods, and regions. It showcases both the normative and empirical traditions in political leadership studies, and juxtaposes behavioural, institutional, and interpretive approaches. It covers formal, office based as well as informal, emergent political leadership, and in both democratic and undemocratic polities. Readership: Academics, researchers, and graduate students in Politics, and across the social sciences.

The Oxford handbook of law and politics
The Oxford Handbook of Law and Politics (Oxford University Press) edited by Keith E. Whittington (Princeton University) R. Daniel Kelemen (Rutgers University) and Gregory A. Caldeira (Ohio State University) is part of the multi volume Oxford Handbooks of Political Science. The study of law and politics is one of the foundation stones of the discipline of political science, and it has been one of the productive areas of cross fertilization between the various subfields of political science and between political science and other cognate disciplines. This Handbook provides a comprehensive survey of the field of law and politics in all its diversity, ranging from such traditional subjects as theories of jurisprudence, constitutionalism, judicial politics and law and society to such re emerging subjects as comparative judicial politics, international law, and democratization. Featuring 50 scholars and 45 chapters, The Oxford Handbook of Law and Politics gathers together leading scholars in the field to critical appraisals of the key issues shaping the discipline today and to help set the direction of research in the decade ahead.

J. S. Dryzek, B. Honig and A. Phillips (eds. The Oxford Handbook of Poltical Theory, Oxford University Press.
I The Oxford Handbook of Political Theory is one of a series of handbooks on political science published by Oxford the others being: 'Contextual Political Analysis' and 'Public Policy' Political Institutions Political Behavior Comparative Politics Law and Politics Political Economy International Relations Political Methodology Its range is very wide and certainly as the table of contents attests to goes beyond what has usually been conceived of as political theory. The contents are divided into 11 parts 'Introduction' 'Contemporary Currents' 'The Legacy of the Past' 'Political Theory in the World' 'State and People' 'Justice, Equality and Freedom' 'Pluralism, Multiculturalism, and Nationalism' 'Claims in a Global Context' 'The Body Politic' 'Testing the Boundaries' and 'Old and New' and 46 chapters. The chapters do indeed attest to the very heterogeneous and diversified thematic approach to political theory, and the geographical spread thereof, including for instance chapters on Islamic and Confucian theories and on the European Union as well as a rather original chapter on American exceptionalism from the point of view of the American political self conception and not, as in the work of S.M. Lipset or Daniel Bell, from the point of view of the non development of socialism in the US or, as has been presented by Luis Hartz, from the point of view of the distinctiveness of American liberalism. Needless to say, one can find also topics which have not been taken up in separate chapters, such as for instance war or Empires the references to the latter being closely connected to post colonial discussion or terrorism which is not to be found in the index and the discussions thereof are dispersed throughout different chapters. But such a situation is in a sense unavoidable not all the topics which could bear in some way on political theory as it is conceived here could possibly be included.
