Doing Good Qualitative Research
In Doing Good Qualitative Research, Jennifer Cyr and Sara Wallace Goodman bring together over forty experts to provide one of the first comprehensive introductions to using qualitative methods across the social sciences, from start to finish. Each chapter introduces the theoretical considerations and best practices involved in the application of qualitative data collection and analysis. Additionally, contributors provide first-person accounts of methodology in action, address the expected and unexpected challenges associated with conducting qualitative research, and demonstrate the real-world applications of academic debates.

Empowering Labor
Theorizes about the underlying political dynamics that shape the use of wage policy as a pre-distributive instrument of leftist governments.
Latin America’s Pendular Politics
This book explores pendular politics in Latin America, focusing on electoral cycles with a pattern of similar results. Latin America has been neoliberal in the 1990s, leftist during the 2000s, then conservative in 2016-2018 and progressist again since 2018. The reference to a right/left/right/left sequence over a period of thirty years undoubtedly accounts for a singular pendulum pattern yet proves to be excessively simplistic. The right/left dichotomy hides fractures and nuances that characterize each political camp. This book seeks to explain why some elections result in alternations and others do not. Based on an innovative theoretical framework and a unique collection of case studies, the book offers a rich understanding of Latin America’s contemporary political evolutions. Voters are getting accustomed to punishing incumbents for not delivering in time of crises, resulting in frequent alternations. It might be good for democracy, not so much for governability.

The Pragmatist
The two main characters of Joseph P. Viteritti's The Pragmatist -- Bill de Blasio and New York City itself -- are used to tell the story of the rise, fall and rebirth of progressivism in America's major urban center, and in the process introduce us to the contributions and distractions of every mayor since La Guardia, demonstrating that the road to progress was never a direct journey.
Party Vibrancy and Democracy in Latin America
In Party Vibrancy and Democracy in Latin America, Fernando Rosenblatt sheds new light on why some parties remain lively organizations that generate intense attachment over time. He concentrates on party performance in three of the region's more stable countries--Chile, Costa Rica, and Uruguay--because they are regarded as 'consolidated' democracies with records of good governance. Even in some of these countries, he shows, party instability is a problem.
