The Professional Researcher as Change Agent in the Government–Performance Movement
Although academic and professional publications give the impression that performance measurement is a growing government practice, in actuality the use of this technology is not as deep or as widespread as it may appear. Even when performance measures are used, governments rarely integrate them into planning, budget, personnel, and other management processes. Most professional researchers located primarily in academic institutions, but also in re…

The major purpose of the comparison is to assess various middle-range theoretical ideas that have been suggeste…

Simulation in the Study of Politics
Inter-Nation Simulation and Contemporary Theories of International Relations
The purpose of this article is to compare the Inter-Nation Simulation (INS)-developed by Harold Guetzkow and his colleagues at North-western University and now employed in a number of universities throughout the country-to verbal theories of international relations. It will not be a discussion of the methodological foundations of the simulation but an analytical comparison, primarily on the level of middle-range theory, of the substantive assumpt…

Textbook writers on general international politics like Morgenthau, and Lerche and Said, as well as those scholars who have specialized in international law like J. L. Brierly and Charles De Visscher, …
