Best New Books in Political Science 2016
International Politics Edition
Summary
Last week featured a year-end-round up of books in American politics. This week I looked back to the past year on the podcast in other subfields. I start with an interview I enjoyed with Prerna Singh. Her book examines sub-nationalism in India. Prerna's book is How Solidarity Works for Welfare: Subnationalism and Social Development in India and was published by Cambridge University Press.
Next up is Marc Lynch who came on the podcast to talk about international relations in the Middle East. Here is an excerpt from our interview. Marc's book is titled The New Arab Wars: Uprisings and Anarchy in the Middle East and was published by Public Affairs in 2016.
In a year with Republicans on the rise in Washington, I enjoyed Bob Lacey's book of political theory. Bob's book is Pragmatic Conservatism. Palgrave MacMillan published the book this year.
And finally, Deepa Iyer came on the podcast to talk about social movements and South Asian American politics. Deepa's book, with my favorite cover of the year, is We Too Sing America, published by The New Press.
I hope you enjoyed the podcast in 2016 and come back in 2017 for more. Remember to rate the podcast on iTunes and share on social media.
