Reforming Political Science

In: Poverty & public policy: a global journal of social security, income, aid, and welfare, Band 10, Heft 2, S. 253-264

Abstract

Political science is in decline because it has become too focused on methodological precision, has lost contact with public policy, and recruits only among academics. To become more vital and relevant, it must use a wider range of methods, recover a voice on policy issues, and expect much more government experience from its recruits.
