oVering authoritative and engaging critical overviews of all the main branches of

each volume being edited by a distinguished international group of specialists in their
respective Welds:
POLITICAL THEORY
John S. Dryzek, Bonnie Honig & Anne Phillips
POLITICAL INSTITUTIONS
R. A. W. Rhodes, Sarah A. Binder & Bert A. Rockman

POLITICAL METHODOLOGY

This series aspires to shape the discipline, not just to report on it. Like the Goodin–
Klingemann New Handbook of Political Science upon which the series builds, each of
these volumes will combine critical commentaries on where the Weld has been
together with positive suggestions as to where it ought to be heading.
