Enfoques para el análisis político se presenta como un estudio comparado de veinte perspectivas actualmente en uso por parte de la ciencia política, para acercarse a escudriñar los fenómenos políticos. El libro sobresale por su redacción clara y pedagógica, por la presentación de criterios sólidos para investigar el mundo político y, a partir de ellos, por un esfuerzo para tender puentes entre los distintos paradigmas hoy en pugna. A partir de un mismo esquema conceptual, se describen los principales rasgos de cada enfoque, se suministran ejemplos concretos de sus principales representantes y se propone una evaluación de sus mayores ventajas y desventajas. La obra entre manos pretende apoyar cursos avanzados de pregrado o introductorios a nivel de posgrado, sobre la naturaleza y el método de la ciencia política. Por su amplia familiaridad con la bibliografía internacional pertinente, ofrece una valiosa oportunidad para actualizarse y profundizar en las herramientas más usadas para el estudio científico de los fenómenos políticos. Este libro despliega ante el lector un horizonte abierto de posibilidades dentro y fuera del excitante mundo epistemológico, teórico, metodológico y práctico de la ciencia política.
In this volume, scholars take up the challenge of disciplinary history by exploring the themes and movements that have shaped political science today.
Oxford Handbooks of Political Science are the essential guide to the state of political science today. With engaging contributions from 51 major international scholars, the Oxford Handbook of Political Theory provides the key point of reference for anyone working in political theory and beyond.
In the half century since World War II, American academic culture has changed profoundly. Academic figures who have helped to produce many of these changes explore how four disciplines in the social sciences and humanities--political science, economics, philosophy, and literary studies--have been transformed. The book compares the different paths these disciplines have followed and the consequent alterations in their relations to the larger public.
In the wake of political collapse in Eastern Europe, the intellectual influence of Marx's thought requires re-appraisal. Backed by current debate and new perspectives, this volume provides comprehensive coverage of his significant contributions.
The Oxford Handbooks of Political Science is a ten-volume set of reference books offering authoritative and engaging critical overviews of the state of political science. Each volume focuses on a particular part of the discipline, with volumes on Public Policy, Political Theory, Political Economy, Contextual Political Analysis, Comparative Politics, International Relations, Law and Politics, Political Behavior, Political Institutions, and Political Methodology. The project as a whole is under the General Editorship of Robert E. Goodin, with each volume being edited by a distinguished international group of specialists in their respective fields. The books set out not just to report on the discipline, but to shape it. The series will be an indispensable point of reference for anyone working in political science and adjacent disciplines. The Oxford Handbook of Contextual Political Analysis sets out to synthesize and critique for the first time those approaches to political science that offer a more fine-grained qualitative analysis of the political world. The work in the volume has a common aim in being sensitive to the thoughts of contextual nuances that disappear from large-scale quantitative modelling or explanations based on abstract, general, universal laws of human behavior. It shows that 'context matters' in a great many ways: philosophical context matters; psychological context matters; cultural and historical contexts matter; place, population, and technology all matter. By showcasing scholars who specialize in the analysis of all these contexts side-by-side, the Oxford Handbook of Contextual Political Analysis shows how political scientists can take those crucial contextual factors systematically into account.
The study of politics seems endlessly beset by debates about method. At the core of these debates is a single unifying concern: should political scientists view themselves primarily as scientists, developing ever more sophisticated tools and studying only those phenomena to which such tools may fruitfully be applied? Or should they instead try to illuminate the large, complicated, untidy problems thrown up in the world, even if the chance to offer definitive explanations is low? Is there necessarily a tension between these two endeavours? Are some domains of political inquiry more amenable to the building up of reliable, scientific knowledge than others, and if so, how should we deploy our efforts? In this book, some of the world's most prominent students of politics offer original discussions of these pressing questions, eschewing narrow methodological diatribes to explore what political science is and how political scientists should aspire to do their work.
