Paradise Plundered
Steven P. Erie, Vladimir Kogan, and Scott A. MacKenzie
Fiscal Crisis and Governance Failures in San Diego
This eye-opening and telling narrative mixes policy analysis, political theory, and history to explore and explain the unintended but largely predictable failures of governance in San Diego. Using untapped primary sourcesinterviews with key decision makers and public documentsand benchmarking San Diego with other leading California cities, Paradise Plundered examines critical dimensions of San Diegos governance failure: a multi-billion dollar pension deficit; a chronic budget deficit; inadequate city services and infrastructure; grandiose planning initiatives divorced from dire fiscal realities; and an insulated downtown redevelopment program plagued by poorly-crafted public-private partnerships, among others. Though the extent of these failures may place San Diego in a league of its own, other cities are experiencing similar challenges and political changes. As such, this tale of civic woe offers valuable lessons for urban scholars, practitioners, and general readers concerned about the future of their own cities.
A landmark expos of how fiscal populism provides camouflage for private greed in Americas most badly governed big city.

Breaking Through the Noise
Presidential Leadership, Public Opinion, and the News Media
Matthew Eshbaugh-Soha and Jeffrey S. Peake
20% discount on all cloth and paperback titles Use promo code: s11PoL
Modern presidents engage in public leadership through national television addresses, routine speechmaking, and by speaking to local audiences. With these strategies, presidents tend to influence the medias agenda. In fact, presidential leadership of the news media provides an important avenue for indirect presidential leadership of the public, the presidents ultimate target audience. Although frequently left out of sophisticated treatments of the public presidency, the media are directly incorporated into this books theoretical approach and analysis. The authors find that when the public expresses real concern about an issue, such as high unemployment, the president tends to be responsive. But when the president gives attention to an issue in which the public does not have a preexisting interest, he can expect, through the news media, to directly influence public opinion. Eshbaugh-Soha and Peake offer key insights on when presidents are likely to have their greatest leadership successes and demonstrate that presidents can indeed break through the noise of news coverage to lead the public agenda.
The presidents impact on the media is one of the great questions of presidential leadership. Breaking Through the Noise makes an important contribution to answering it by showing how the White House influences the mediasand ultimately the publicspolicy agenda.

What Judges Do, Why They Do It, and Whats at Stake

Edited by Charles Gardner Geyh
In this book, the nations top legal scholars and political scientists examine to what extent the law actually shapes how judges behave and make decisions, and what it means for society at large. That political scientists and law professors bring distinct approaches to the study of judging is inevitable. That the two are mutually informativenot mutually exclusiveis just as undeniable, as this volume admirably demonstrates. A great read.

All Judges Are Political Except When They Are Not
This volume pulls together an excellent cast to examine one of the most intriguing and most difficult questions in the study of law and politics today.
This book provides a new perspective on the origins and implementation of the three most important policies that emerged during the New Dealthe Agricultural Adjustment Act, the National Labor Relations Act, and the Social Security Act. It reveals how Northern corporate moderates, representing some of the largest fortunes and biggest companies of that era, proposed all three major initiatives and explores why there were no viable alternatives put forward by the opposition.

Accepting Authoritarianism
Edited by Scott Kennedy The PRC is led by a Communist Party, but it has rarely been systematically compared with other Communist countries. China is awash in capital, but it is only infrequently compared with other capitalist countries. And even though non-state actors are increasingly politically active, 5 their behavior is rarely measured directly against that of their cousins elsewhere. The methodological demands of studying China, and a widely held belief in China's distinctiveness, have long been part of why most research on the country consists primarily of within-country analyses. This book breaks new ground by systematically examining China's capitalist transformation through several comparative lenses.
Contributions from leading specialists on China's political economy compare China with France, Russia, Japan, South Korea, Indonesia, India, Brazil, Mexico, and South Africa. Doing so puts the PRC in a light not available through other approaches, and provides a chance to consider political theories by including an important case too often left out.
An impressive and most welcome effort to bring China into comparative analysis.

Labor Unions and Democratic Politics in Korea and Taiwan
FILP and the Politics of Public Finance in Japan

Gene Park
Spending Without Taxation
The exceptional experiences of South Korea and Taiwan in combining high growth and liberal democracy in a relatively short and similar timetable have brought scholarly attention to their economic and political transformations. This new work looks specifically at the operation of workers and unions in the decades since labor-repressive authoritarian rule ended, bringing Taiwan, in particular, into the literature on comparative labor politics. A strong contribution to the literature on the political economy of east Asia, with interesting implications for studies of labor and democratization more generally.

The Institutional Imperative

Erik Kuhonta
The Politics of Equitable Development in Southeast Asia
A Southeast Asia Perspective

Vedi R. Hadiz
Localising Power in Post-Authoritarian Indonesia
Arguing against managerialists who expected decentralization and democratization to lead to greater market openness, Hadiz portrays a messy contestation among social forces at different levels of the polity.
Gerry van Klinken, Royal Netherlands Institute of Southeast Asian and Caribbean Studies
Why do some countries in the developing world achieve growth with equity, while others do not? If democracy is the supposed panacea for the developing world, why have Southeast Asian democracies had such uneven results? In exploring these questions, political scientist Erik Kuhonta argues that the realization of equitable development hinges heavily on strong institutions, particularly institutionalized political parties and cohesive interventionist states, and on moderate policy and ideology. The Institutional Imperative is framed as a structured and focused comparative-historical analysis of the politics of inequality in Malaysia and Thailand, but also includes comparisons with the Philippines and Vietnam. It shows how Malaysia and Vietnam have had the requisite institutional capacity and power to advance equitable development, while Thailand and the Philippines, because of weaker institutions, have not achieved the same levels of success. At its core, the book makes a forceful claim for the need for institutional power and institutional capacity to alleviate structural inequalities.
This boldly comparative book will be widely read, widely assigned, and widely debated in the field. There are few comparable works out there. Kuhontas book should be required reading for those interested in development, political institutions, state building, social welfare policies, and Southeast Asia.

Decentralization and Participation in PostFujimori Peru

Stephanie L. McNulty
Using original data from six regions of Peru, political scientist Stephanie McNulty documents variation in Perus participatory decentralization reform implementation, delves into the factors that explain this variation, and points to regional factors as prime determinants in the success or failure of participatory institutions. An impressive contribution to the literatures on decentralization and participatory democracy by showing what happens when participatory reforms are mandated from above rather than demanded from below. Mcnulty helps us understand why politicians decentralized, what types of institutions they designed, and why participation increased in some regions but not in others.

China and the Future of Latin American Industrialization

Kevin P. Gallagher and Roberto Porzecanski
In the eyes of many, Chinas unprecedented economic rise has brought nothing but good news to the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean. Indeed, Chinas growing appetite for primary products, and the ability of Latin America to supply that demand, has played a role in restoring growth in Latin America, both in the runup to the global financial crisis and in its aftermath.

Fiscal Crisis and Political Change in Egypt under Mubarak

AVAILABLE IN NOVEMBER 2011
The Political Economy of Authoritarian Resilience

Bassam Haddad
Collusion between business communities and the state can lead to a measure of security for those in power, but this kind of interaction often limits new development. In Syria, statebusiness involvement through informal networks has contributed to an erratic economy. With unique access to private businessmen and select state officials during a critical period of transition, this book examines Syrias political economy from 1970 to 2005 to explain the nations pattern of state intervention and prolonged economic stagnation. A path-breaking study of Syrias political economy. With unequalled access to first hand sources, his work highlights the underlying political logics that have shaped Syrias economy since the rise of the baath Party to power half a century ago.
Steven Heydemann, U.S. Institute of Peace
Business Networks in Syria
The Egyptian protests in early 2011 took many by surprise. In the days immediately following, commentators wondered openly over the changing situation across the Middle East. But protest is nothing new to Egypt, and labor activism and political activism, most notably the Kifaya (Enough) movement, have increased dramatically over recent years. In hindsight, it is the durability of the Mubarak regime, not its sudden loss of legitimacy that should be more surprising. Though many have turned to social media for explanation of the events, in this book, Samer Soliman follows the age-old adage follow the money. Over the last thirty years, the Egyptian state has increasingly given its citizens less money and fewer social benefits while simultaneously demanding more taxes and resources. This has lead to a weakened statedeteriorating public services, low levels of law enforcement, poor opportunities for employment and economic developmentwhile simultaneously inflated the security machine that sustains the authoritarian regime. Studying the regime from the point of view of its deeds rather than its discourse, this book tackles the relationship between fiscal crisis and political change in Egypt.
A first-rate analysis.
Joseph A. Kchichian, Gulf News
Soliman follows the money, using previously inaccessible data from egyptian state budgets, to make interesting and convincing arguments about the character of the egyptian state and regime, and about authoritarian politics more generally. A serious and refreshing interrogation.

Change and Continuity in Asian International Relations Since World War II
Mistakes, in the form of bad decisions, are a common feature of every presidential administration, and their consequences run the gamut from unnecessary military spending, to missed opportunities for foreign policy advantage, to needless bloodshed. This book analyzes a range of presidential decisions made in the realm of US foreign policy with a special focus on national security over the past half century in order to create a roadmap of the decision process and a guide to better foreign policy decision-making in the increasingly complex context of 21st century international relations. Mistakes are analyzed in two general categories ones of omission and ones of commission within the context of perceived threats and opportunities. Within this framework, the authors discuss how past scholarship has addressed these questions and argue that this research has not explicitly identified a vantage point around which the answers to these questions revolve. They propose game theory models of complex adaptive systems for minimizing bad decisions and apply them to test cases in the Middle East and Asia.
This book does a superb job of integrating historical, gametheoretic, and psychological approaches and deepening our understanding of how to avoid miscalculations that can cause grievous harm on a massive scale.

A Genealogy of a Racialized Identity in International Relations

Srdjan Vucetic
The Anglosphere
Militarizing Men
Maya Eichler
International Politics in Gender, Conscription, 18th Century Europe and War in PostMarco Cesa Soviet Russia
[This] work is at the cutting edge of contemporary international relations scholarship in the realist tradition.
Allies yet Rivals
The Anglosphere refers to a community of English-speaking states, nations, and societies centered on Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States, which has profoundly influenced the direction of world history and fascinated countless observers. This book argues that the origins of the Anglosphere are racial. In reconstructing the history of the Anglosphere, the book engages directly with the most recent debates in international relations scholarship and American foreign policy. Vucetic analyzes the now officially forgotten racial-in-origin identification of Anglo-Saxon peoples and shows how it still matters in the close alignment of policies among the US, Great britain, Canada, Australia, and new Zealand. He wants us all to think harder about racialization as a force in world politics.
Robert Vitalis, University of Pennsylvania
This book shows how mens militarization has been both challenged and reinforced in the context of Russias post-communist transition and the Chechen wars. Eichlers empirical and theoretical study of masculinities in international relations applies for the first time the concept of militarized masculinity, developed by feminist IR scholars, to the case of Russia. This important and engaging piece of scholarship neatly fills a gap in our understanding of masculinity and regime legitimation strategies. eichlers thoroughly researched, multimethodological study. . . constitutes a most welcome addition to Russian studies, gender studies, and international relations.

Dan Caldwell
Vortex of Conflict is the first, accessible, one-volume resource for anyone who wishes to understand why and how the U.S. became involved in the wars in Afghanistan and Iraqand in the affairs of Pakistanconcurrently. It will stand as the comprehensive reference work for general readers seeking a road map to the conflicts, for students looking for analysis and elucidation of the relevant data, and for veterans and their families seeking to better understand their own experience. As we approach the tenth anniversary of the September 11th attacks, a holistic understanding of the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan is long overdue. Dan Caldwell provides a reasoned analysis of the national security struggles we face as a nation, and what to do about them. Highly recommended.

After Leaning to One Side

Zhihua Shen and Danhui Li
Reducing Uncertainty describes what Intelligence Community analysts do, how they do it, and how they are affected by the political context that shapes, uses, and sometimes abuses their output. In particular, it looks at why IC analysts pay more attention to threats than to opportunities, and why they appear to focus more on warning about the possibility of bad things happening than on providing the input necessary for increasing the likelihood of positive outcomes. Tom fingars distillation of lessons learned during more than two decades at the nexus of intelligence analysis and national security decision-making is clear, concise, and brimming with insight. Reducing Uncertainty should be required reading for all who produce, use, or think about intelligence.
