Description:
For this podcast, I usually interview book authors. This week, I am trying something a little different. I focus on a new political science journal and one of their upcoming book review articles. On the podcast are: Eric Waltenburg, Associate Professor and Purdue University and Stephen K. Medvic, Associate Professor and Chair, Department of Government, Franklin & Marshall College. Waltenburg is the Lead Editor, Politics, Groups, and Identities, a new journal affiliated with the Western Political Science Association. Medvic has written a review of four new books about political partisanship (see below). We discuss the review and the larger vision for the journal.
