Comparative European Politics presents a portrait of a profession, through four intellectual biographies and twenty-three intellectual autobiographies of leading scholars in the field of political science. These show how particular experiences in youth turned each of them towards the study of politics. They describe the milieux - personal and academic - in which they developed as scholars, singling out important sources of intellectual inspiration and the effect of specific political experiences. The book describes the work of individual scholars, of important collaborative ventures and of organizational initiatives which led to the building of an infrastructure for genuinely international research: stories of academic careers, of achievements and doubts, of lessons learned or imparted."Young scholars and graduate students must read this book, to learn how a generation of scholars was able to work across the barriers of distance and language to establish modern comparative European politics." Seymour Martin Lipset, Editor of the Cross-National Encyclopedia of Democracy"Daalder has done us a great service in making this book a reality; it can be recommended most strongly." Acta Politica, 1998". an excellent catalogue of some of the richest, most innovative and empirically solid research in political science". Mershon International Studies Review, 1998The editor, Hans Daalder, Professor of Political Science at Leiden University from 1963 to 1993, was one of the founding fathers of the European Consortium of Political Research and the first Head of the Department of Political and Social Sciences of the European University Institute in Florence. 580 gr.
