After a close association in the first half of the 20th century, during the 1970s the political science & history disciplines parted company: political science embraced behavioral analysis of narrow questions & historians lost interest in government institutions & public policy. However, in the 1980s & 1990s, the field of American Political Development gained in popularity among political scientists who pursued broader historical questions, eg, Progressive Era reform, the New Deal, etc. Institutional political historians emerged to tackle issues surrounding law & public policy & the development of the modern administrative state. The exciting connections between political science & history should not be limited to American Political Development, however. Examples of other scholarship examining the connections are reviewed, eg, in civic participation, the relationship between race & politics, international political economy, & the philosophy of history. Each discipline still has its unique approach but for the study of politics, an understanding of the other is of great benefit. M. Pflum

Regards the study of politics not so much as a discipline with a distinctive method but more as a field of study which is amenable to various approaches. Suggests that the contribution of history has been more a body of knowledge than a set of methods. (SJK)

This essay addresses the interrelationship of individual skill, organizational structure, & political context & seeks to establish the possibilities of theoretical generalization concerning political leadership. Working at the interstice of what might called "theoretical history," the author reflects on his own previous contributions to the literature & those of his collaborators. These studies have dealt with an analysis of one institution, the Tennessee Valley Authority, over time; of a group of similarly placed officials whose careers spanned different organizations &/or contexts; & of presidents & prime ministers in the US & UK within a limited historical context. The author concludes by proposing additional research in the form of "small studies" across time & space that may yield new perspectives on possibilities for political leadership in the contemporary world rather than predictive political science.

MANY QUESTIONS OF INTEREST TO POLITICAL SCIENTISTS MAY BE ANSWERED WITH EVENT HISTORY ANALYSIS, WHICH STUDIES THE DURATION AND TIMING OF EVENTS. THE AUTHORS DISCUSS THE STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF EVENT HISTORY DATA-DATA GIVING THE NUMBER, TIMING, AND SEQUENCE OF CHANGES IN A VARIABLE OF INTEREST. THESE METHODS ARE ILLUSTRATED BY EXAMINING THREE SUBSTANTIVE POLITICAL SCIENCE PROBLEMS: OVER MILITARY INTERVENTIONS, CHALLENGER DETERRENCE, AND CONGRESSIONAL CAREER PATHS; MANY OTHER APPLICATIONS ARE POSSIBLE. THE ARTICLE IS INTENDED TO PROVIDE A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE GROWING NUMBER OF APPLICATIONS THAT CURRENTLY EXIST IN POLITICAL SCIENCE AND TO ENCOURAGE GREATER USE OF THESE MODELS BY SHOWING WHY EVENT HISTORY MODELS ARE USEFUL IN POLITICAL SCIENCE RESEARCH AND EXPLAINING HOW ONE SPECIFIES AND INTERPRETS THESE MODELS.

Strives to show how an interpretive perspective can deepen our grasp of political science's past & present. While organizational histories of the discipline are worthwhile, they are insufficient in terms of conveying continuity & transformation in the wide range of political concepts that eventually became key to research & teaching in the field. A case study is also offered to demonstrate the application of the interpretive approach by examining the conceptual origins of institutionalism in Turkish political science, with particular attention to Maurice Hauriou;s "theory of institutions" & its treatment by Turkish legal scholar & political science forebear Tarik Zafer Tunaya.

A brief chronicle of experimental research in political science is presented, based on an empirical analysis of 217 published experiments from 10 major scholarly journals. Different subject areas where experimental designs have been employed are identified, dated, & analyzed. Four dimensions are defined that characterize these experiments: level of analysis, experimental environment, assumptions concerning rationality, & the nature of the experimental stimulus. 2 Tables, 2 Figures, 73 References.
