Rewriting the Epic of America
One Rewriting the Epic of America IRA KATZNELSON “Is the traditional distinction between international relations and domes- tic politics dead?” Peter Gourevitch inquired at the start of his seminal 1978 article, “The Second Image Reversed.” His diagnosis—“perhaps”—was mo- tivated by the observation that while “we all understand that international politics and domestic structures affect each other,” the terms of trade across the domestic and international relations divide had been uneven: “reason- ing from international system to domestic structure” had been downplayed. Gourevitch’s review of the literature demonstrated that long-standing efforts by international relations scholars to trace the domestic roots of foreign pol- icy to the interplay of group interests, class dynamics, or national goals1 had not been matched by scholarship analyzing how domestic “structure itself derives from the exigencies of the international system.”2 Gourevitch counseled scholars to turn their attention to the international system as a cause as well as a consequence of domestic politics. He also cautioned that this reversal of the causal arrow must recognize that interna- tional forces exert pressures rather than determine outcomes. “The interna- tional system, be it in an economic or politico-military form, is underdeter- mining. The environment may exert strong pulls but short of actual occupation, some leeway in the response to that environment remains.”3 A decade later, Robert Putnam turned to two-level games to transcend the question as to “whether

Margaret Levi: I have a couple questions that I am going to prime the pump with here, Lin, and then we can let conversation flow however it does. There are many things about your history and what you’ve done in your career that are immensely impressive and have broken all kinds of barriers. But one of the things that I’ve been most intrigued by, and which I know very few other people have achieved, is the way in which you have not only tolerated and encouraged a multiple-method 1 approach to how one does work, but how you’ve conquered so many different methods. You really are very au courant in just almost—first, you learned game theory, and you learned microeconomics.

Students learn the most advanced formal and statistical techniques to address substantive problems in political science, while some develop the technical skills needed to do work in pure formal theory or statistical methods, and others acquire skills for qualitative or historical work. The program has a storied history and long tradition of excellence. After joining Richard Fenno in Rochester in 1962, William Riker pushed the department – and the discipline – in a new direction, creating the field of “positive political theory,” which uses modeling techniques from mathematics, prob- ability theory, and game theory to study political phenomena of interest.

Politics of Political Economy: Revisiting Elinor Ostrom and Garrett Hardin
POLITICS OF POLITICAL ECONOMY: REVISITING ELINOR OSTROM AND GARRETT HARDIN Will Parsley TC 660H Plan II Honors Program The University of Texas at Austin November 29, 2016 __________________________________________ Dr. Alexandra K. Wettlaufer French and Italian, Plan II Honors Supervising Professor __________________________________________ Joseph Bailey Jr. Plan II Honors Second Reader ABSTRACT Author: Will Parsley Title: Politics of Political Economy: Revisiting Elinor Ostrom and Garrett Hardin Supervising Professors: Dr. Alexandra K. Wettlaufer and Joseph Bailey Jr. The goal of this thesis is to provide perspective on Prof. Elinor Ostrom’s (d. 2012) challenges and achievements in the field of Political Economy. Her works, chiefly Governing the Commons: The Evolution of Institutions of Collective Action published in 1990, are emblematic of a consensus change in the lens through which policy makers, economists, and everyday human beings view management of shared natural resources. Elinor “Lin” Ostrom’s thinking typifies that of the model 21st-century political economist: combining creative vision with dogged empirical research to address wholly new and distinctly modern sets of problems. Professor Ostrom tackled problems such as wildlife preservation, urban water management, and fishery conservation among others. Despite receiving the Nobel Prize in Economics in 2009, her body of work on institutions for collective action is often undercut by its unearned reputation as a direct rebuttal to Garrett Hardin’s controversial essay “The Tragedy of the Commons,” published in 1968. However, Ostrom's work stands alone. A clear-eyed review of political economics reveals the triumph of her indomitable conviction in her method over barriers created by gender- prejudice. 2 Introduction Political Economy is young academic field that features creative combinations of economics, political science, and ecology to solve humankind’s oldest resource problems.

Governance in a Partially Globalized World Presidential Address, American Political Science Association, 2000 ROBERT O
American Political Science Review Vol. 95, No. 1 March 2001 Governance in a Partially Globalized World Presidential Address, American Political Science Association, 2000 ROBERT O. KEOHANE Duke University acing globalization, the challenge for political science resembles that of the founders of the United States: how to design institutions for a polity of unprecedented size and diversity. Globalization F produces discord and requires effective governance, but effective institutions are difﬁcult to create and maintain. Liberal-democratic institutions must also meet standards of accountability and participation, and should foster persuasion rather than rely on coercion and interest-based bargaining. Effective institutions must rely on self-interest rather than altruism, yet both liberal-democratic legitimacy and the meaning of self-interest depend on people’s values and beliefs. The analysis of beliefs, and their effect on institutional outcomes, must therefore be integrated into institutional analysis. Insights from branches of political science as diverse as game theory, rational-choice institutionalism, historical institutionalism, and democratic theory can help political scientists understand how to design institutions on a world—and human—scale. alk of globalization is common today in the press interdependence include war.

Comparative Politics. the Core Reading List Is NOT Meant to Be Exhaustive Or to Substitute for Taking Seminars with CP Faculty
COMPARATIVE POLITICS: CORE READINGS Department of Political Science, UCSB Fall 2017 This reading list is designed to assist students in identifying major works in the field of Comparative Politics in preparation for the comprehensive examination. The list is meant to serve as a guide to central works in comparative politics. The core reading list is NOT meant to be exhaustive or to substitute for taking seminars with CP faculty. In general, seminars offer you far better preparation for the exam than reading the items on your own, and will give you some suggestions for more recent works (since the last update of the core reading list). Furthermore, as students select sub-fields of special interest, they should supplement this list with recent articles, in depth case studies, or specialized works which might not be necessary for a student simply wishing to be generally informed about a sub-field. Finally, students should consult the CP faculty in preparing for their examinations, both for general advice and for supplementary readings. We recommend that you consult the anthologies published by Oxford University Press for a useful overview of topics listed below. The essays also provide additional references to the themes addressed. The series includes: Robert E. Goodin, ed. (2009) The Oxford Handbook of Political Science; Carles Boix, Susan C. Stokes, eds. (2009) The Oxford Handbook of Comparative Politics ; and David Collier, Janet M. Box-Steffensmeier, Henry E. Brady, eds. (2008), The Oxford Handbook of Political Methodology and (forthcoming) The Oxford Handbook of Electoral Systems. The list is organized in three broad sections: 1) the identification of examples of different approaches to the study of comparative politics, 2) works important to research design and methods, and 3) the sub-fields of comparative politics.

Political Science 441: International Political Economy
Political Science 441: International Political Economy Northwestern University Fall 2019 Fridays 1-3:50pm Scott Hall 201 (Ripton Room) Prof. Stephen Nelson Office: Scott Hall 238 Office hours: Wednesdays 2-4pm Email: [email protected] Phone: 847-491-2589 (office) Course website: accessed via canvas.northwestern.edu Course Overview Political Science 441 surveys some of the major issue areas and debates in the fields of International and Comparative Political Economy. It is targeted to Ph.D. students in political science, though graduate students from other fields and ambitious and well- prepared undergraduates are welcome to join. Forewarned is forearmed: the reading load is heavy, and I expect that each member of the course will be prepared to discuss each of the readings. Broadly, the subfields of International and Comparative Political Economy involve the study of how politics, emphasizing power, material interests, institutions, and non- material factors (like ideas, norms, and social conventions), shape and are shaped by market forces (transactions involving goods and services, money and financial assets, firms and factories, and workers). Because I do not regard the disciplinary distinction between IPE and CPE as particularly important, the course includes topics and readings from both subfields. If there are readings/topics that you would like to cover that are not on this version of the syllabus, please bring them to my attention. I also reserve the right to make changes (with the caveat that you will have plenty of warning if I choose to shuffle readings around). The syllabus is an outline, not a contract, and it is subject to change.
