{"product_id":"studying-politics-today","title":"Studying Politics Today","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book examines what political scientists are studying – and how they are doing it – in ways that could improve our world. It features scholars in political science and related fields, who are engaged in research that is more politically relevant than the work that continues to dominate the larger discipline. Their shared commitment \"to make the study of politics relevant to the struggle for a better world\" represents the continuing legacy of the Caucus for a New Political Science, founded in 1967, and the perestroika movement that began in 2000. Both have challenged the defining commitments of political science as a discipline to narrow, parochial, and apolitical approaches to the study of politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlthough the balance of disciplinary critique and alternative approach varies from chapter to chapter, all of the authors included here offer innovative and progressive perspectives on the study of politics today. Topics include: critiques of mainstream political science methods and models; redefinitions of key concepts and major institutions; reconstructions of the borders, subjects, and spaces of politics; and reflections on the ethical commitments of scholars and scholarly journals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book was published as a special issue of \u003cem\u003eNew Political Science: A Journal of Politics and Culture.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54258630525272,"sku":"9781138019164","price":192.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781138019164_da4dee29-a319-40bc-a164-55e361462dba.jpg?v=1769615132","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/studying-politics-today","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
