An examination of the movement that has turned the discipline of political science upside downThis superb volume describes the events and ramifications of a revolt within the political science discipline that began in 2000 with a disgruntled email message signed by one Mr. Perestroika. The message went to seventeen recipients who quickly forwarded it to others, and soon the Perestroika revolt became a major movement calling for change in the American political science community.What is the Perestroika movement? Why did it occur? What has it accomplished? What remains to be done? Most important, what does it tell us about the nature of political science, about methodological pluralism and diversity, about the process of publishing scholarly work, and about graduate education in the field? The contributors to the bookthoughtful political scientists who offer a variety of perspectivesset the Perestroika movement in historical and comparative contexts. They address many topics related to heart of the debatea desire for tolerance of methodological diversityand assess the changes that have come in the wake of Perestroika. For political scientists and their graduate students, and for those interested in the history or sociology of social sciences, this volume is essential reading.
