The future prosperity of New Jersey depends, in large part, on the ability of its communities to draw and retain a diverse population that will stimulate economic growth and supply the workforce. The challenge facing the state is the necessity to create an environment that supports economic development, is affordable to all residents, makes wise use of its remaining land, and takes care to protect the State’s natural resources.

  • Message from the Director
    2009-2010 Report MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR Summer 2010 The hyper-linked 21st century gives a very different, yet also powerful, resonance to John Donne’s 17th century words, ”No man is an island.” Carrying smart phones in our pockets or purses, we are rarely out of range from work, home, or the latest news. Thumbs tapping away, we have quick access to people, ideas and events nearby and around the world. Most often, being connected is a good state of affairs. Whether in person or electronically, connecting is expansive — a way of multiplying opportunities and enriching understanding. The Eagleton Institute of Politics could be characterized as doing the work of “connecting.” We describe our mission as “linking the study of politics with its day-to-day practice.” It’s axiomatic that politics depends on connections. We believe strongly that students who show an interest in learning about politics and government should encounter accomplished practitioners who exemplify leadership. We are also committed to connecting public officials, potential candidates, journalists, and our citizenry to information, rich political discussion, research and analysis about issues of state and national significance. Much of our success is measured in how we bring people together, build bridges across fields of knowledge, and probe the past for guidance in strengthening our democracy. For us, connecting is an educational value and a practical way of life. If compromise and consensus are hallmarks of healthy connections, this past year’s fractious politics appeared to offer few examples. At times, some people may have questioned whether they might not be better off retreating to their own islands rather than engaging in the political process.

  • Message from the Director
    2008-2009 Annual Report MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR July 2009 Only a year ago, intense interest in presidential politics seemed nearly universal and passions ran high. Now, that drama has faded into sobered recognition. The hard work of governing more closely resembles engineering roadways yard-by-yard across mountain peaks than waving magic wands to transform daunting landscapes. Both moods are grist for our mill at the Eagleton Institute of Politics. Whether in research projects, classroom settings, or public programs, a fundamental premise underlying Eagleton’s work is that change is either stalled or facilitated by politics. Throughout academic year 2008-09, old-fashioned politics occupied center stage. In the fi rst election season since 1952 with no incumbent president or vice president on either ticket, the primaries and caucuses had already generated unprecedented interest, and by autumn, matters of politics fi lled the headlines, airwaves, cyberspace – and the Rutgers campus. Unfolding economic events, natural disasters, and international confl icts further channeled public attention toward the political system and the capabilities of governments at every level to address problems large and small, mass and individual. Young people became increasingly aware of the ways in which their futures will be intertwined with political considerations and with the strength of political leaders. In this climate, Eagleton’s work aroused more interest than usual. Graduate students from fi elds as varied as anthropology and ecology/evolution, along with those from political science, law, and public policy, took advantage of our fellowship programs to fi nd linkages between their scholarship and the politics of policymaking.
