In the first collection of interviews with the most prominent scholars in comparative politics since World War II, Gerardo L. Munck and Richard Snyder trace key developments in the field during the twentieth century. Organized around a broad set of themes-intellectual formation and training; major works and ideas; the craft and tools of research; colleagues, collaborators, and students; and the past and future of comparative politics-these in-depth interviews offer unique and candid reflections that bring the research process to life and shed light on the human dimension of scholarship. Giving voice to scholars who practice their craft in different ways yet share a passion for knowledge about global politics, Passion, Craft, and Method in Comparative Politics offers a wealth of insights into contemporary debates about the state of knowledge in comparative politics and the future of the field.
Gerardo L. Munck is an associate professor at the School of International Relations, University of Southern California and the author of the award-winning book Authoritarianism and Democratization: Soldiers and Workers in Argentina, 1976-83. Richard Snyder is an associate professor of political science at Brown University and author of Politics after Neoliberalism: Reregulation in Mexico.
